2016 Results

Students in New Jersey ranging from grades 5-12 voted primarily via paper ballots. Students submitted votes for four categories: President, House of Representatives, whether or not NJ should enact a gas tax, and whether or not there should be term limits for Congressmen. 85% of the students submitted votes for all four categories. The remaining 15% only submitted votes for the presidential candidates. Votes were received from students residing in each congressional district. Additionally, votes were received from students residing in every county except for Atlantic, Salem, and Gloucester. These missing counties are not shown in the reporting tables.

A representative from each participating school district collected the voting results. In total, 74 school districts across NJ participated, with a grand total of about 65,700 students casting votes.
