New Hampshire Mock Election

    On February 2, 2016, students will have the opportunity to cast their vote for a presidential candidate in the New Hampshire Mock Election! After voting is over, the results will be shared with the entire school as well as to New Hampshire Public Television, who is running the program.  In class, we will be watching a short video about what Primaries and Caucuses are, but we will not be discussing candidates in particular.  Because this is a primary mock election, students must choose a single party before voting. Only the Democratic and Republican parties will appear on the ballot.  For more information about the election as well as resources to help your child research and understand more about each presidential candidate before casting their vote on February 2nd please visit www.nhptv.org/mockelection.
