Wyoming Secretary of State Ed Murray is working on an initiative to get more young people to the polls.

Murray says a large percentage of young Wyomingites are not casting their ballots.

"Only 10% of Wyoming’s youth, aged 18-24, voted in the last election, so we are finally going to tackle this issue."

Many young people believe their vote doesn't matter, but Murray says the close results in Iowa's presidential caucuses are a prime example of why youth should make sure their vote gets counted.
