With American elections just around the corner, a new campaign called 'Get Your Booty to the Poll' was launched encouraging viewers to vote. The name of the campaign, Get Your Booty to the Poll, is a playful pun on the dancers who perform complex moves on the poles and the voting polls used to decide American's elected officials.
The campaign itself is a parody of many popular music videos and features dancers that explain all the ways your vote will impact the future including things like the D.A. elections, diversified school education that prepares students for the job market, and ending cash bails. It also provides viewers with a link to information and resources on where they can vote and who is running in their area.
