On October 28, the public high school for Grand Rapids, Minnesota, released the results of its mock presidential election. The high school ballot included all nine presidential candidates who are on the actual Minnesota November ballot. This article carries the results. The two major party nominees only received 69% of the total high school vote.
Highschool students are smarter than adults .I hope every 18 year old in Michigan votes for Gary Johnson.To send a message.Also every potsmoker in Michigan should vote for Gary Johnson and give him a landslide victory in Michigan.
I don’t know how closely past mock elections have reflected the actual results in Minnesota. But these and three or four other Minnesota High School mock returns that have been announced, when compared to actual 2012 returns for the same communities, show Trump getting about the same percentage of votes as Romney did, but Clinton running from 20% to 30% behind the level of votes Obama received. In Maine, where the students have picked the winning tickets accurately since 2006, Trump won handily. “Whom the gods would destroy they first drive mad.” To William Sollenberger, I would note that the Grand Rapids MN students gave Gary Johnson 42 votes and Dan Vacek, nominee of the Legal Marijuana Now party, got 41 without any publicity or campaign organization.
