2020 Virtual Youth Voter Registration Presentation & Guide

In 2020, LWVUS created a Virtual High School Voter Registration Lesson that we can used and passed along to our local high school teachers.
 
 

Mock Voter Registration Presentation

The Mock Voter Registration lesson and power point is designed to be given just prior to a voter registration tabling event.

These materials were developed when League volunteers realized that high school and college students often lack the basic knowledge about the electoral process making it difficult for them to understand and make informed choices that the form requires.  Although information about the elections is covered in their high school coursework it’s not something students necessarily remember when they fill out a voter registration card or register online.

The sequel to the Mock Voter Registration Lesson. 

It’s appropriate for high school, college and other community venues.  The presentation was developed to help make new voters feel comfortable about voting for the first time. This presentation walks new voters through the voting process, from when they first enter to when they exist their polling place.  The topics covered include:

  • checking your voter registration status
  • locating your polling place
  • what forms of ID to bring with you
  • reviewing your town’s actual ballot
  • how to fill in the ballot
  • how to request an absentee ballot
  • and more!
