Support NeoGAF

[i-Lo]

35% is still too high.

They understand the threat of "ISIS".

 

[Rentahamster]

I remember doing one of these when I was little. I didn't know who anyone was, or what they were doing, so I essentially guessed.

Not much different than the adult electorate too.

 

[Slayven]

We need to stop kids until we figure out what is going on

 

[Htown]

Little inner city riggers..

I had to read this twice, lol

 

[Garlador]

Trump won't talk smack about them. He likes those with the same-sized hands as himself.

 

[Rayis]

Children smarter than adults confirmed.

 

[JABEE]

Understandable, depending on how they experienced the Nixon vs JFK debate.

They also couldn't account for all those dead people voting! That's an oldie but a goodie!

 

[Laevateinn]

They also couldn't account for all those dead people voting! That's an oldie but a goodie!

Dead people can't tell their kids who to vote for.

 

[Neo C.]

We need to lower the voting age to like...twelve. Maybe ten.

Old people won't allow such a thing. I know because we tried in our country to lower it to 16. Failed miserably.

 

[Elandyll]

Well, I that's it. Wrap it up guys, Dem's done Fucked it up, they just gave Trump the proof the elections are rigged.

Guess having the dead vote wasn't enough, also had to have children vote for you too, eh? Shillary MCrookinston?

 

[Korigama]

Not exactly sure why Michigan was specified as a battleground state in the article (not only is it not close here, last time it went red during a Presidential election was 1988). Well, whatever, certainly more hope for the future here than the kids' parents and grandparents have inspired.

 

[Psychoward]

I remember doing something like this in 2008.

Spoiler

I was a rebel and voted HRC

In 2008? Fuck.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

The article doesn't mention it, but Hillary won SC this time, too. Iowa is apparently the magical state of the GOP future.

Kids give Trump the boot.

 

[Dirca]

Good thing kids can't vote

 

[linkboy]

I remember doing this for the Reagan/Mondale '84 election when I was in kindergarten. I voted Reagan because that's what my family told me, and a female VP was entirely ridiculous to them.

I did it for the Bush/Dukakis election. Can't remember who voted for.

 

[Ambient80]

Now we're going to see Hillary getting interviewed by PewDiePie and will be talking about Minecroft.

I'll be honest, I'd watch that. Lol

 

[adj_noun]

I did it for the Bush/Dukakis election. Can't remember who voted for.

I voted Dukakis.

Got crushed like a bug.

 

[Gordon Shumway]

I voted Dukakis.

Got crushed like a bug.

Ha! 😔

 

[MogCakes]

I can't wait until Trump calls for parents to stop sending their kids to school.

 

[Nepenthe]

Hopefully this actually bodes well for the voting patterns and political landscape of the future.

 

[Gobias]

I remember doing this in 2000. I voted for Bush. Sorry

 

[Meowster]

In 2008? Fuck.

Bare in mind, I didn't do this in elementary school. They combined middle school and high school to see who would win each of the schools (two HS and four MS). Obama won three schools, McCain won two, and Hillary won one lmao.

 

[B.O.O.M]

The article doesn't mention it, but Hillary won SC this time, too. Iowa is apparently the magical state of the GOP future.

Look at that red line right in the middle...trump is dividing the country!

 

[Austriacus]

People need to give more credit to kids. They absorb information really fast and we live in the internet age, The adults of tomorrow will continue to be more informed as time goes on.

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

Half those kids are influenced by their parents and facebook while half of them are probably just screwing around.

 

[Bread]

I remember doing this in 2000. I voted for Bush. Sorry

lol me too

 

[pirata]

Wow, blue Texas. I guess my screaming "DEMOGRAPHICS, SHIFT FASTER!!!" at the ground may pay off in a few years.

 

[ezrarh]

There are already more minority students in kindergarten than white students so uh...how about that pivot GOP?

 

[mrpoopy]

 

[Deleted member 80556]

This is pretty cute, I wonder how it would pan out in my country if this was done.

Each election year since 1940, Scholastic has administered the Scholastic Student Vote, a national mock presidential election. The results of the Student Vote have been correct in all but two elections, 1948 (Truman vs. Dewey) and 1960 (Kennedy vs. Nixon)

Smh little shits voting for Nixon.

Spoiler

Just kidding of course.

 

[Hickbilly Deluxe]

Mondale. The guy who shall forever be known as the human sacrifice the democrats tossed out there to get ran the fuck over by the unstoppable freight train that was Reagan. Poor bastard was only able to carry his own state, and that was by less than a percentage point.

 

[BannedEpisode]

I remember my highchools mock election handed the presidency to the communist party back in 2004.

 

[Link]

Little inner city riggers..

Fucking naggers.

 

[midramble]

Yes but can the children win back the scholastic senate or is the scholastic supreme Court doomed to stalemate and scholastic legislature dead in the scholastic water?

I can't tell what's real anymore...
