It’s Election Day at St. Mary’s High School.
Students might not be able to vote in the real election but they are casting ballots in Student Vote 2015.
They have been learning about government and elections, and have researched the candidates, leaders, and party platforms.
Students are even taking on the roles of deputy returning officers, poll clerks, and scrutineers for the vote, which will focus on the riding of Calgary-Central.
Polls are open at the school, on 18 Avenue SE, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday.
