Results are in - my class' preference
Fifth grade, secret ballot

Bush - 6
Kerry - 16

(Throwing Nader into the mix would have confused the heck out of the kids. Because this is elementary, I try to be very neutral when talking about politics in class, so I don't think my bias crept in.)

2. in 2000
in my daughter's 4th grade class, Gore won by a big margin. Nader came in second with quite a few votes. Bush only got one vote.

Kids understand these things...

4. Heck, write a press release
"Bellwether fifth-graders go for Kerry." It can't hurt!
