Norfolk homeschool co-op's mock elections predict Presidential and Senatorial Race

Our children held a mock election yesterday. First, gratitude to Sharon, Janice, and Cynthia for organizing this event. You all did a great job putting this together.

Our results were not the only thing similar to the real election; we ran out of ballots due to high voter turn out! Our organizers did a spectacular job coming up with back-up ballots and everyone who wanted to vote, did.

Children as young as 5 and as old as 16 voted in our mock election with the following results:

DEMOCRATIC PARTY Barack Obama/Joe Biden 20
