It gives high school and middle school students firsthand experience with the electoral process by giving them a chance to make their voices heard on the candidates and issues important to them and their families.</p> <h2>Here’s How</h2> <p><a href="https://elections.cdn.sos.ca.gov/mock-election/images/sme-how-to-web-button.jpg">Each school needs to select a Mock Election Coordinator and </a><a href="https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/studentmockelection">register</a> their school. The coordinator serves as the school’s primary contact to receive and distribute updates on the mock election to participating teachers and reports the final schoolwide vote tally to the Secretary of State’s office.</p> <p>The mock election could become a project for the student government by itself, or with other student groups. It might involve a broader committee of students, teachers, parents, and community volunteers. Participation in the mock election can take place online, in classrooms, or at one central location on campus. Schools can add their own creative touches to make their mock election a rewarding experience.</p> <h2>Tools and Resources</h2> <p>Mock election resources will be available on the <b>2024 California Student Mock Election </b><a href="https://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/studentmockelection/tools-success">Tools for Success</a><b> </b>page in the Spring of 2024. The 2024 Student Mock Election will once again offer two electronic voting options: Google Forms and interactive PDF ballots. Electronic ballots and instructions for electronic voting will be emailed to schools that opt for an electronic supply kit when they register.</p> <p><u>New for 2024</u>: All schools that register by September 16 will receive a welcome packet in the mail containing an informational letter, “Save the Date” posters, “I Voted” stickers, Pre-registration brochures and High School Poll Worker recruitment flyers.</p> <h2>2024 Key Dates</h2> <p><!--<h2>For Principals:</h2> <p>Please take a moment to <a href="http://www.sos.ca.gov/elections/mock-election/register/">Register Your School</a>. You will need to designate a Student Mock Election Coordinator to serve as the school's main contact for the project, and to report your school's election results to the Secretary of State's office.</p> <h2>For Students:</h2> <p>You and other interested students are the single most important ingredient in a successful MyVote California Student Mock Election.
