Rehoboth Christian Elementary School held a mock election on November 4, 2008 to coincide with the national presidential election. Students in grades K-5 were given the opportunity to "vote" for John McCain or Barack Obama. Students not only voted, but also assisted by working as election officials and tabulating the results. This was a fun way to learn about how elections work in the United States. How did the Rehoboth election compare to the national election? Actually, our results were quite similar. In our election, Barack Obama defeated John McCain 73-58 (56%)
