The Kiryu City Election Administration Committee plans to set up an early voting station at the Kiryu Campus of Gunma University's Faculty of Science and Technology to encourage young people to participate in politics. This is part of an effort to turn universities into voting venues since the voting age was lowered to 18 in 2016. Kiryu City had been considering setting up polling stations in commercial facilities and other locations in an effort to increase voter turnout, but with the cooperation of Gunma University, which has a track record of regional collaboration, the installation is now moving towards becoming a reality.
