International Online Elections Now Available
The Youth Leadership Initiative now has the ability to host online elections for any country in the world. If you are from a country other than the United States and wish to host a national or regional online election, YLI is here for you. Your elections can be connected to political races, referenda on important issues to your nation, or less formal topics such as your country's favorite sports team. Providing your students the opportunity to participate in an online election will build in them a habit of voting and teach the importance of being engaged citizens.
All YLI registrants have the ability to create a Mock Election for their specific school or organization at any time during the year using YLI's My Mock Election program. International educators and civic organizations interested in hosting an online election for multiple schools or nationwide in their country should contact YLI at 434.243.8475 or send an email to ylihelp@virginia.edu. YLI will set up your online election free of charge.
