Post Election Statement

The Western Student Association (WSA) would like to recognize all of the members of the Western Michigan University (WMU) community who exercised their right to vote in the 2020 Election. From first time voters to those who have made it a lifelong habit, we commend you for making your voice heard and participating in our democracy. Due to your participation, we have seen a 12.6% increase in voter turnout in Kalamazoo County since 2016 and historic levels of youth voter turnout across the state of Michigan and the entire country. Despite the unprecedented circumstances of an election during a global pandemic, you prioritized your most important right and responsibility as a citizen, and that is worth celebrating.
