Eve Ensler Event Mobilizes the V Vote

Playwright Eve Ensler is turning more of her attention towards politics, hoping that she can motivate her "V-Warriors" to swarm the polls in November. Ensler, who is most famous for penning "The Vagina Monologues," kicked off her "V is for Vote" campaign in New York City on Monday night. As noted in a review of the event posted in Salon, this rally featured all the brutal honesty for which this woman has built a huge following. Indeed, Ensler reminded the young women gathered at the Culture Project Theater in Manhattan that going to the polls is a simple but dramatic way they can radically impact society: "Voting takes fives minutes and is easier than finding your G-Spot."
