Fabiola Vejar waits to register people to vote in front of a Latino supermarket in Las Vegas on Thursday, June 9, 2016. Shielded from deportation under an Obama administration program that protects those brought to the country illegally as children, Vejar, 18, cannot vote. So she volunteers with Mi Familia Vota, encouraging others to be heard at the ballot box. "I don’t have that voice," she says, "but there's other people ... who feel the way I do. They should vote."
