National Student/Parent Mock Election
The N.C. Center for Voter Education is the official coordinator in North Carolina for the National Student/Parent Mock Election (NSPME), giving future voters across the state an opportunity to engage in American democracy.
The NSPME makes students and parents aware of the power of their ballot by actively involving them in a full-fledged campaign and national election. In 2004, the last presidential election year, over 4 million students, parents and teachers participated in all 50 states.
Along with conducting a simulated election through NOV. 4, 2008, the NSPME offers top-notch curricula to explain voting and civic participation. Since the project began in 1982, over 40 million people have participated.
To learn how you can participate in the 2008 National Student/Parent Mock Election, please visit North Carolina's official mock election headquarters at www.NCMockElection.org.
