Social Studies - by Ethan Kos

In social studies we learned that you have to be 18 years old or older to vote. Not everybody can vote. If you are not a citizen, you have to take a [citizenship] test [and become a citizen] before you can vote.  We learned that there are elections for mayors, governors, and presidents.  When you vote in an election, you go to a booth to vote (you might have a paper to write on, something to poke, or you might vote on the computer). If you are in a different state or you can't vote on the election day, you have to mail an absentee ballot before the election.
