Emma Chamberlain\u00a0wears many hats. She’s\u00a0a YouTuber,\u00a0a business owner,\u00a0a mental health advocate, and a podcast host. But, at the core of it, she’s a 19-year-old, and she’s aware of the responsibility she has to vote in the upcoming presidential election \u2014 and she’s encouraging other young people to do the same.<\/p>\n
In an interview with POPSUGAR, Emma acknowledged that figuring out the process as a first-time voter has been “nerve-wracking.” “I’m new to it, figuring out how to register and all of that,” she said. But beyond the initial nerves, she recognized that there’s a sense of real power that comes with casting your first ballot. “I feel it’s such a sign of OK, you’re an adult now.”<\/p>\n
“It’s truly something that is so cool that we have the ability [to vote]. It’s a new responsibility that gets added to your plate as you become an adult,” Emma continued. “It’s something to be excited about in life; something to be passionate about. I think leaning into it is just so important. Go do it.”<\/p>\n
