Student Vote - 2012

Last year, the kids were involved in the voting process through Student Vote for the Federal Election. This year, they are involved in the voting process  through the same site for the Alberta Provincial Election; which is next Monday.
Yesterday was our "voting day". We've spent the last 2-3 weeks learning about the electoral process, our MLA's in our district ( which now is Livingstone-McLeod, not Calgary-Shaw), and our prospective candidates for Premier. We watched the televised debate...and honestly? Meh.....the kids were not impressed- not because they thought it was boring....because it wasn't...They were NOT impressed with the cat fight between the Wildrose Leader and the PC leader. I wonder if that swayed their votes yesterday? Hmmmm....wonder if it will sway any voters in general?
