Voting is both a privilege and an obligation of citizenship.
The 2010 mock general election was held at Berkeley High School on Wednesday, October 20 and Thursday, October 21, 2010. Students were able to use this site to learn about the ballot, and to “test drive” the voting experience.
Berkeley High students could participate in the following ways:
- Follow links from the Mock Election Resource page to investigate ballot contests.
- Click one of the following links to bring up a sample ballot with which to practice before going to the polls on October 20 or 21. Ballot in English or Boleta en EspaƱol
- Check back here after October 26th to see how Berkeley High’s vote compares to the statewide Mock vote, and after November 2 to see how it compares to the General Election results.
THE RESULTS ARE HERE.
