National
Student/Parent Mock Election
Courtesy of the AASL Hotlinks for September 2004
The National Student/Parent Mock Election is the nation’s
largest and most successful voter education project, with over
10 million students and parents casting their votes in the last
two presidential year Mock Elections. Educators and parents can
enroll online, by mail, or by fax. Hundreds of pages of free K-12
curriculum materials are also on the Web site. All are developed
around the National Standards for Civics and Government. Students
can be engaged in debates, issues forums, mock press conference,
candidate forums, cable call-in programs, and “get out the
vote” campaigns. There are no mandates. Educators are free
to use the materials that best suit the needs of their classes.
