The weekend before Election Day, College Republicans mobilized for one of the largest student-led get-out-the-vote efforts in recent history, traveling to four important swing states – Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, and Florida – that will decide the results of the presidential election on Tuesday.
Polls show Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump neck-and-neck in Nevada, however Democrats have built an early voting lead there of +5.19%, and President Obama won Nevada in 2012 by 52.3% to 45.7%.
Over 100 conservative college students traveled to Las Vegas from neighboring states California, Arizona, and Washington to help the Nevada College Republicans knock on 27,000 doors last weekend.
“Every poll in Nevada on the state of the presidential election is within the margin of error,” said Sydney Jacobs, co-organizer of the “Make Nevada Red Again” deployment. “It is our hope that these tens of thousands of doors College Republicans knocked this weekend can push Donald Trump over the edge to win the 6 electoral college votes from the state of Nevada.”
Former GOP presidential candidate Ben Carson and former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani were both in Nevada on Saturday and Sunday, encouraging the students to get out the vote for Trump. They spoke to students about the importance of the next president appointing a new Supreme Court justice, and enforcing pro-life policies.
