Voters aged 18 to 25 make up more than 24% of the voters whose ballots Griffin challenged on the basis of incomplete voter registrations. Peck is a founder and co-director of the Student Voting Rights Lab, a collaborative project between Duke and North Carolina Central University, formed last summer to address the hurdles college voters often face in terms of registering and acquiring the requisite ID for casting a ballot. Despite this ordeal and the uncertainty looming over her ballot, Dib-Gomez said Griffin's election protest hasn't dampened her ardor for the democratic process, though she can understand how it might for other young voters.
