designed to engage mobile consumers with U.S. Presidential
election-themed emoji, GIFs and themes. The #MobileVoter Campaign puts
the power of the poll at voters’ fingertips with interactive stickers
and short-form videos ranging from an “I Voted” button to emoji of the
leading presidential candidates. The #MobileVoter Sticker Pack is
available as a free download in the BBM, Tango and Paltalk stickers

“Mobile messaging continues to be such an important platform for
millennials and young consumers to have their voices heard and to
interact with peers,” said Evan Wray, co-founder and vice president of
Swyft Media. “Our #MobileVoter Campaign gives consumers a fun, engaging
and modern way to demonstrate love for their country and support their
favorite candidate – with content that inspires both politically charged
and playful conversation among their friends and social network. This
election has created a new level of dialogue among the American people
and now there is a way to take it to their favorite mobile messaging
platform and share their sentiments using entertaining visual content.”

The 2016 presidential election is already proving to be historic,
especially as it relates to engaging millennial voters in the broader
political conversation. For the first time, millennials’ proportion of
the eligible voting population parallels that of baby boomers¹.

places they spend most of their time – mobile and social media apps.
