About DoubleClick Democracy
What Is DoubleClick Democracy?
DoubleClick Democracy lets students participate in an authentic voting experience by using
a Web-based voting system. The online ballots replicate the races and issues
that are on the adult ballot for each electoral district. Students learn about
our representative democracy through fun, hands-on classroom activities. They
even get an opportunity to practice using the online ballots before casting their
actual DoubleClick vote. The practice ballots include links to candidate
biographies and other resources so kid voters are informed and empowered.
