One Tree Hill actress Sophia Bush went to UNCW to campaign for Senator Obama.
As part of the Obama campaign’s effort to draw new people into the Democratic process, Bush will host a voter registration drive rally geared towards North Carolina’s youth.
Friday she was at UNCW’s Burney Center in efforts to get students to register to vote.
This week the campaign announced the “Carolina Change Challenge,” which is a voter registration competition. The top 10 volunteers who register the most voters and the top five high school students who register the most high school students will get to meet Senator Obama at an upcoming event.
The campaign has also launched an innovative online voter registration tool, here.
“This is my home away from home. To make a difference here is wonderful, it’s great to see so many people here that are passionate and excited, ready to do something,” said Bush.
Early voting for the May 6 primary starts on April 17.
