Lauren Jauregui, Fat Joe, PrettyMuch and DJ Nasty to perform at MTV's midterm 'Election Afterparty'

MTV recently announced it will wrap up the final phase of its first-ever midterm campaign, '+1 the Vote,' by announcing a series of new initiatives and plans for an 'Election Afterparty' set for Tuesday November 6 from 7 pm to 10 pm at Miami Dade College. 

The event is set to be the largest youth-focused election party in the country and will feature performances by Fat Joe, PrettyMuch, DJ Nasty, and Lauren Jauregui. The 'Afterparty' kicks off when polls close in Florida and will celebrate the efforts of young people across the nation getting out the vote. 

'+1 the Vote' was created in order to harness the power of friendship and ignite the most powerful voting bloc in the country. As part of the final phase of the campaign, MTV and Civic Nation’s #VoteTogether — with support from “Grown-ish” star Yara Shahidi and 'Eighteenx18' — partnered to supercharge youth voter participation by funding parties at the polls in all 50 states.

The first party took place October 20 in Fresno, California, and attracted hundreds of young voters, and similar events are planned for the weeks leading to the 'Election Afterparty.' Additionally, the youth campaign will roll out a series of new Spanish-language PSAs (Public Service Announcements) encouraging young people to register and vote. They will also launch an interactive election map profiling young candidates and activists across the country.

MTV News launched its explainer series, highlighting leading artists and celebrities breaking down the importance of the midterm elections – the first of which included Olympic star, Adam Rippon. They will continue to roll out videos through election night that will feature Macklemore, R&B Duo Chloe and Halle, and Lauren Jauregui.

MTV’s 'Election Afterparty' is an 18+ event and is first come, first serve, subject to capacity. Visit plus1thevote.com for more information.
