This week on Comes A Time co-founder of voter registration organization Headcount, Andy Bernstein, joins Oteil and Mike to catch up on Headcount's banner year leading up to the 2022 midterm elections. Andy discusses their mission to get “everyone politically engaged,” and why it’s critically important to listen to one another, especially if you have an opposing point of view.
HeadCount is a non-partisan organization that uses the power of music to register voters and promote participation in democracy. They reach young people and music fans where they already are – at concerts and online – to inform and empower. Headcount stages nonpartisan voter registration drives at more than 1,000 live events each year and collaborates with cultural leaders to promote civic engagement on a national scale. Since 2004, they've signed up over 1,000,000 voters through their work with touring musicians like Ariana Grande, Dead & Company, and Beyoncé.
