PAML MOCK ELECTION: All PAML students are invited to vote on Tuesday, November 8th. The ballot that students will be using is similar to what Morristown voters will use. Students will be asked to “check in” using our PAML voter checklist and “check out” after voting much like what happens during voting at the town offices. Democracy works best when there is active participation!
