If attempting to convince a group of young mothers to vote "Yes" on a proposition to make texting and driving illegal, what persuasive technique could be strongest to convince them? Defend your answer with logic and reasoning.

Appeal to their emotions. They would be worried about the safety of their children, so it would be best to convince them that distracted drivers/distracted driving could be a threat to their children. By explaining to them that teens often die in distracted driving accidents, or that distracted drivers could hit other cars causing an accident their children might be involved in, they will be more likely to vote yes.
