Around the Nation: Students Walk Out To Vote

This Election Day, students across the nation are organizing walkouts at 10 a.m. local time in each time zone.

The aim: to get more young voters out to the polls and show that the student movement that began in the wake of the mass shooting at a high school in Parkland, Fla. this year can impact the ballot box.

YR Media has been tracking the walkouts all morning on Twitter, and here's some of what we've seen so far:
