The Maine Student Mock Referendum Election is October 28, 2025
More information to come soon!
Participating in the Maine Student Mock Election is an excellent way to encourage young people to become interested in voting and involved in candidate campaigns and state and national issues. More than 19,530 students from 116 schools voiced their opinion in the 2022 gubernatorial election.
Many schools use this as an opportunity to bring civics and current events into the classroom. Often these discussions in the classroom continue at the dinner table when the student goes home. Those parents who already vote will reinforce the lessons learned in the classroom. Those parents who are apprehensive about voting may become interested in the electoral process because of the interest developed by their child.
