Run a campaign for fun to elect someone to an honorary
position, such as Mayor for the day, or Grand Marshal of a local
parade. You can run a small election with a few different candidates.
Use your creativity and invent a couple of different political parties
and a platform for each. Collect money as votes during the course of
the campaigning. One penny or dollar equals one vote. You will want to place
“ballot” boxes in a secure location. Decide if you will keep a running
total board or if you will keep the results secret until the end. Host
a debate for the candidates to talk about the issues. Run a concession
stand to make some extra money.
