IUPUI students participating in mock election

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – IUPUI students will participate in a mock election Wednesday.

Students will get their chance to cast a mock vote for the higher-profile elections like president and governor.

Several groups, including the Marion County Board of Elections and the League of Women Voters, will also be on hand to teach students about their rights.

The university said the event was created with the hope of getting more students to head to the polls on Nov. 8.

The mock election begins Wednesday at 10 a.m. in the Campus Center.
