Midterm Election November 4, 2014

The midterm election is drawing near and we'll have our mock elections 10/31 & 11/3.  An informed voter is always the best voter so if you can, do as much research ahead of time.

We'll watch a few sort videos on the Governor's race and one on the US Senate race in class.  You can also fill out your Election 2014 sheet (on the back of the stock market sheet) for extra credit.

Remind your parents to vote November 4th and enjoy your day off.
