Junior Elections at Steinmühle: How Our Grades 9–13 Voted

As part of a school project on political education, the “Junior Elections” were once again held at Steinmühle for students in grades 9–13 in the run-up to the state legislative election on October 8. As subject teacher Eva Katharina Rink reported, the students cast their constituency votes and state votes on October 4 and 6, respectively. The charts show how voting took place at our school—and, with regard to the state-wide vote, also in comparison to the overall results of all participating schools in Hesse. Voter turnout at Steinmühle, at 85.1 percent, was higher than the state average (82.7 percent).
