Local elections simulation by the School of Political Science and the School of Law
On March 13th, the students of the School of Political Science and the School of Law, as part of their course Regional Autonomy and Local Self-Government, held a practical simulation of local elections. The simulation was held in ZELS, and the participants had the tasks of electing of electing a Mayor of the City – among 2 candidates, and 5 members of the municipal council – among 10 candidates. The entire simulation was inventive and a great success so the elections were successful. The students elected the municipal council, however the Mayor would have to be elected in a second round of elections due to a tie in votes. This was a great way for students to apply their knowledge and discover practical aspects of the election process.
