Legacy Projects > 2016 Indiana Kid's Election 2016 Indiana Kid's Election

On Nov. 8, students across Indiana will elect their own governor and president in a show of active citizenship through the Indiana Kids’ Election (IKE) mock election program. Sponsored by the Indiana State Bar Association, Indiana Secretary of State and the Indiana Department of Education, IKE provides students in grades K-12 with the hands-on experience of voting in a class or school-wide mock election. Students learn to develop good voting habits at an early age by participating in voting milestones such registering to vote and casting a ballot on Election Day. Under Indiana law, schools must give instruction on the election process two weeks prior to a general election for grades 6-12. IKE helps Indiana schools meet this requirement by providing comprehensive curriculum guides, free of charge, to participating schools. Indiana attorneys also have the unique opportunity to participate in this program by volunteering for the IKE Speakers’ Bureau.
