When i was in preschool i voted for john mccain in a mock election because his name reminded me of candy canes
.....ok but why were they having preschoolers vote in mock elections?
To teach the importance of participatory democracy, and how it is completely unassailable and the only reasonable way to impart change!
Seriously, to brainwash kids into not thinking about anything else besides voting vis a vis politics
Like, this is a thing that you'd do for middle school civics. Preschoolers can hardly read.
Better to start when they can't critically think. Ingraining it young means it doesn't get questioned the same as doing so later
