The 'Pokémon GO to the Polls' meme originated during the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election when candidate Hillary Clinton attempted to appeal to younger voters by referencing the then-massively popular mobile game, Pokémon GO. During a campaign stop in Annandale, Virginia, she uttered the now-infamous line: 'I don't know who created Pokémon GO, but I'm trying to figure out how to get them to Pokémon GO to the polls.' The phrase immediately became a symbol of 'fellow kids' style marketing—a well-intentioned but perceived-as-cringeworthy attempt by politicians to bridge the generational gap. Today, the meme is used to satirize awkward political outreach, 2010s nostalgia, and the intersection of pop culture and civic duty.
