1. Try The Landry News by Andrew Clements and Nothing
But the Truth by Avi. They are fictional but raise
some issues regarding rights.

2. Hope was here -- Bauer -- does a great job with
municipal elections
maybe more of an 8th grade book
The Kid Who Ran for President -- Gutman -- has
excellent instruction on
campaign requirements, elections, and even tackles
electoral college.
This one may be a stretch, but I think it would
work--Strawberry Autumn -- Anne Schraff -- currently
published by PerfectionLearning. This book is about
the civil rights movement and discussesnonviolent
civic action and consequences and obligations

New England.
