Da Nang's student voters embrace digital tools for historic 2025 election
Da Nang's upcoming national election is drawing strong interest from its large student population. With around 151,800 eligible voters, many of whom come from other provinces, universities are actively supporting them in updating their voting details. Students are now preparing to cast their ballots, either in person or through digital tools like the VNeID app.
The election, held on May 18, 2025, has prompted students to carefully research candidates before voting. Many are reviewing platforms, experience, and professional records to make informed choices. Some universities have even converted their campuses into polling stations to make voting more accessible.
To simplify the process, institutions are helping students transfer their ballots to their current addresses. The VNeID digital identity app has become a key tool, allowing users to update their polling locations and check candidate lists without returning to their hometowns. By March 2026, over 1.2 million students nationwide had already used the app for this purpose. Students in Da Nang see their votes as a way to shape the city's future, particularly in areas like job creation and development. Their participation is expected to be high, reflecting a growing trend of young voters engaging with digital solutions.
The election marks a significant moment for Da Nang's student voters, who are leveraging technology to take part. With universities providing logistical support and digital tools streamlining the process, more young people can vote without travel barriers. The outcome will reflect their priorities for the city's growth and governance.
