Sarah Manshreck and Defin Rajala are asking for your vote – but they don't want it for themselves.

Representing the We Vote North Shore campaign, the voter outreach ambassadors are trying to convince eligible voters to cast a ballot in the Oct. 20 municipal election.

Voter turnout ranged from 23 to 30 per cent across the North Shore in the last municipal election, but with compelling mayoral races in the City of North Vancouver, District of North Vancouver and West Vancouver, the duo are hoping to see a marked improvement this year.

They’re next scheduled to be at The Shipyards in Lower Lonsdale on Friday between 5 and 10 p.m. with a particular emphasis on bringing their message to young voters and new voters.
