Vassar High School Government Students Vote in National Student Mock Election
VASSAR HIGH SCHOOL – Mrs. Heinlein’s Government students took part in a
national mock election on October 24, 2024. Students used a state-of-the art online voting
system as they participated in a mock election program sponsored by the Youth
Leadership Initiative (YLI), a national civic education program based at the University of
Virginia Center for Politics. Millions of students have voted in YLI Mock Elections
making it the largest secure, student-only online mock election in the nation.
STUDENT QUOTES:
“The upcoming election is going to be life-altering. No matter what the outcome is, lives
will be changed or destroyed, moral decency ignored, and the truth violated. Personally, I
am very scared for the election and how the public will react to the outcome.”
--Sophomore
“I wonder who will win the election overall and in Michigan. Michigan is a big swing
state with democratic big cities and small republican towns. Most of Michigan is
Republican, but the densely populated areas are Democrat.” -- Senior
“I’m mad because I am one year from voting and can’t vote in this election.” --Senior
“I like that we had a mock election. I think voting is very important and it’s good to have
an understanding of the process. I don’t like any of the presidential candidates, they don’t
respect each other and it shows. I’d prefer one over the other, but to be honest I just wish
we’d have better candidates.” -- Senior
“I think the election is going to be very close and very scary.” --Senior
Results of the YLI National Mock Election will be available the morning of Monday,
November 1, 2024.
