"County Elections Office, NAACP Work Together To Get Teens To Vote"

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- The Broward County elections office is teaming up with the NAACP today to get young, first-time voters to the polls.

The elections office and the NAACP are busing teens to the African American Research Library and Cultural Center where they can cast their ballots.

"I was so excited to just get in there and vote, you know, and just let my voice be heard. I'm so excited, I mean I'm going to make it my business to be here every year," said first-time voter Monique Cruz.

"There were 5,271 people who voted, which is one-third of the number of people who voted in the August primaries. So, we're expecting the large numbers to continue and we encourage people to get out and take advantage of the early voting," said Broward County Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes
