The midterm election two years ago saw a historic turnout of young Michigan voters. Experts say that's thanks, in part, to a 2022 ballot measure to protect abortion rights in the state constitution. This year, reproductive rights aren't on the ballot in Michigan. But it's still an issue guiding how many Gen Z are voting this fall. What the Vote? reporter Yesenia Zamora-Cardoso asked young voters how they're thinking about and mobilizing around abortion access this election.
