1. How did your school results compare to your county’s and precinct’s actual results? 

2. Check out the statewide results for Pennsylvania. What do you notice about the way different counties voted? (Also note population density in these counties – Cameron County in the northern tier versus Philadelphia, for example.)

3. As you view the results, which candidate performed the best among all offices, by percent of votes received? 

4. Which offices had different candidates winning the mock election versus the actual election?
