Helping students learn important lessons in elections and open new doors.
The Constitution of the United States has been amended several times to expand voting rights for citizens. And yet many students do not understand the impact of these historical changes. Our unique program bridges the gaps and broadens students’ perspectives on the power of voting. Click here to learn why we are reaching out to students.

The power of voting
Our unique program, Orange County’s MyBallot, is a comprehensive 3-step series which includes in-class lessons on the history of voting, creating ballots and vote tabulation. Our powerful curriculum builds on students’ skills in English, Math and Civics.

Building your own ballot
MyBallot, which was designed exclusively for high school students, reveals the complexities involved in conducting elections. Students will work hands-on at our department creating their own ballots. Lessons in graphic arts, publishing and precise proofing are just a sampling of what students will learn.
Learn how to tally votes
Soon students will discover why our MyBallot program is truly one-of-a-kind. During the final stage we’ll bring our Mobile Voting Unit directly to participating schools to conduct their ASB or homecoming elections. Students will be directly involved in assembly, tally and certification of the votes cast.

At the end of the program students will be offered the opportunity to work in the polls on Election Day. There are some basic requirements to participate in the program but the rewards last for a lifetime.
