Political Literacy
Rock the Vote: Voting information targeted to your students - this site provides easy online registration in addition to other resources for voting.
Project Vote Smart: Tons of resources! This site was created to connect voters to information about candidates and government.
The Democracy Project: This is an excellent site from PBS. It's from PBS kids, but it has excellent materials about the government and voting that also work well with adult students.
Georgia Voting Information: This site for Georgia's voters provides links to voter registration information, voting procedures, absentee ballots, and voting on election day.
Voting in Your County: Although this site is sponsored by Pennsylvania's State Department, it offers great resources. By clicking on a county, your students can view a video which "walks them through" the voting process on election day. Please Note: If they click on Warren County, they will be connected to a video which shows voters how to use the Diebold voting machine (used in many counties in Georgia). To find out which machine is used in your county, contact your local Board of Elections. By clicking on different counties on this site, you should be able to find your county's voting machine.
