Hello boys and girls! Have you ever heard about voting? Voting is when people make an important choice together.
Imagine if your family couldn’t decide what to have for dinner. What could you do? You could take a vote to choose what to eat!
Or think about your basketball team needing a new captain. How would you decide? You could take a vote!
Voting is very important for grown-ups too. When people turn 18, they can vote to choose new leaders for their community. These leaders could be the mayor of a city, the governor of a state, or even the President of the United States!
On election day, citizens go to a special place like a library or a school gym to vote. Inside, there are voting booths that help keep everyone’s vote private. Voters make their choices on a piece of paper called a ballot and put it in a ballot box. Some places use special computers instead of ballot boxes.
After all the votes are counted, a new leader is chosen!
