Plot Synopsis

Starring and executive produced by Yara Shahidi, THE CLOCK IS TICKING is a two-part digital series that focuses on preparing young voters for the 2020 election -- from demystifying the ballot to providing helpful resources on what to expect if planning to vote in person and even what to bring to the polls, including Yara's go-to snacks. The digital series is written by Baratunde Thurston and is part of Freeform's "Kick 2020 in the Ballots. FF'ing Vote" initiative, a non-partisan, multiplatform voting campaign that encourages young adults to tackle the issues affecting their lives with the most powerful weapon they possess: Their vote.

"Why We Vote" (Drops Tuesday, October 27, 2020): In the premiere episode, Yara will demystify the ballot. While completing her own ballot, she provides viewers tips to coding it like a textbook and figuring out how to connect the issues they care about to the measures they are voting on. Yara urges viewers to treat voting like the "greatest group project there is," encouraging viewers to build community through their vote.

"Last Call for Democracy" (Drops Tuesday, November 3, 2020): It's election day! If you plan to head to the polls to drop off a completed ballot or vote in person, Yara will share some tips on what to bring to be prepared, including her GROWN-ISH inspired playlist and what she packs in her bag for the trip to her polling place.
