Isn't that awesome? I have no chance whatsoever since five other people are running, but I'm gonna try.
 I'm going to campaign with my bestest best buddy in the whole world, Sarah.  We can't really run on the same ticket. That's not how it works, unfortunately.  But yeah, I'm not going to ask if you've run for class president before or not because I think that was already a topic, but rather, how does your school handle class presidency and whatnot? I know just to run I had to get fifty signatures from kids from my class and three teacher recommendations. Then we get our whole class to vote after we've put up posters and stuff.

You know what's funny? I hate my class (well, strongly dislike), and I want them to vote for me.
 Meh. Oh well. That's politics, no?

there's only 120 kids in my grade, getting 50 sigs would be insane.
last year, at the end of 8th grade, the senior class officers came and said whoever wanted to be officers had to make a speech tomorrow and then we'd vote. of course, all the popular people won. pfft. |

wow, good luck! eh, i'll never be able to run for president. but, at my school, people run for president of their grade, and the students of that grade votes. at the preliminaries, we get 2 votes, but for the final, we get 1.
QUOTE psh class elections is nothing more then a popularity contest........if you have more homies then you have more votes..no1 cares wth you are going to do in office....... yeah, that's really true at my school. psh, for freshman and sophomore years, the class president/v.p did nothing. |

If it's only class officers, only the class will elect. ( IE, Freshman Class, so on and so forth. )
If it's ASB, then the whole school elects. Freshman class officers are voted in at the start of the school year. Soph - Senior - ASB = end of the school year. - Chinkieeyedpnoi |

I wonder if you can put down cB as one of your accomplishments... I mean, you do help to regulate and maintain a fairly large online community.
