Questions and answers
How do I run a class election?
Agree on the rules first (who can run, speech length, how a tie is broken). Let each candidate share their ideas for the same amount of time, print the ballots, vote in private, then count together using the tally sheet.
What’s in the printable election kit?
Ballots for every candidate (four per candidate per page, on US Letter), a ballot-box sign to tape on a cardboard box, and a tally sheet for counting.
What happens if there’s a tie?
Run a runoff round between the leaders. The kit does it in one tap. Decide this rule before the vote, not after.
Is this good for teaching civics?
Yes. A 45-minute lesson plan is included: majority and minority, secret ballots, campaigning fairly and accepting results. The mock election counts the popular vote only.
