Since the adoption of the Constitution in 1789, the United States has been regarded as a model of democracy and civil society. Some of the Founding Fathers' ideals remain, such as the need to engage in the electoral process. 25-year-old actress and singer Sabrina Carpenter recently registered over 35,000 new voters during her concerts.

According to CNN, Donald Trump has already secured enough electoral votes to become the president-elect. His success was likely aided by high voter turnout, with some areas exceeding the expectations of local election boards. Americans lined up in long queues to cast their votes.
One of the notable figures during the presidential election was Sabrina Carpenter. The young singer and actress registered 35,814 new voters during this year's concert tour and engaged over 260,000 people through apps. No one in show business can boast of such an achievement.
Carpenter is now being recognized as an "influential figure" in the United States, having contributed to registering the largest number of young Americans eligible to vote ahead of the 2024 presidential election. Second on the list of showbiz personalities is Ariana Grande, who registered 15,591 new voters, while the band Green Day registered only 7,900 people.
It should be noted that the singer conducted her campaign in collaboration with a non-partisan organization whose sole aim is to increase the number of registered new voters and engage those already registered, for example, by checking their registration status in an app or finding a polling place.
Sabrina Carpenter was born in 1999. She participated in singing and dancing contests as a child, but her first successes came as a young actress. At 11, she landed a role in the NBC television series "Law & Order." In 2015, she released her debut album titled "Eyes Wide Open." Besides her work in show business, she is involved in charity work. She became an ambassador for the Ryan Seacrest Foundation, which builds TV and radio studios in children's hospitals. She also supports the Charity Water Foundation, which focuses on building water reservoirs and purchasing sanitary equipment for third-world countries.
