We're from Western Native voice.
We're letting people know that we're in the community.
We're giving people rise to the satellite office or to
the polls.
It's up to you entirely.
But vote, it's so important that you guys vote this
year, OK?
It's really important.
We get a pretty positive response to most people, especially
because we're native as well.
Hey, Johnny, how are you?
So they're more open to to listening each day.
We try to do about two to three hours and
and kind of cover each community because we are like
just in clusters all over in each town and there's
several districts on, on each reservation.
Voter apathy is so low that, I mean, it's low
because we're worried about just getting through the day today.
And then if we actually think about it and get
to it, it's always coming back to like, well, we're
disregarded no matter what we do.
We're not heard.
We go through those lines of reasons why we don't,
but that's why these guys are doing the work they're
doing to try to change that.
We can help you out and take you to the
election office and register because it's important that you vote
this year.
I mean, you guys are seeing the conditions, the living
conditions, you know, even public services.
We don't get public services on the reservation.
And it's because we want to be sovereign and we
want to stay sovereign.
But we have to realize, like it goes beyond our
reservation that we need to vote because if we don't,
we don't have a seat at the table yet.
And and we need to create it.
You have a very powerful voice as indigenous people, Native
American, American Indian, your voices are powerful.
The last bingo that we did here in Croatian, see,
it was awesome because a lot of people showed up.
We were used to getting like maybe 20-30 voter registrations
a day, if that.
But that day we did the bingo, we got 126
voter registrations at once.
So it was an awesome, awesome turn out.
So I think it was things like that that really
encourages us a little bit more.
