[LM_NET] Hit:Elementary election resources

[THOMAS MOLM <molmpt1447@MSN.COM>]

My original target:

With the presidential election coming up this fall, I would like to add
resources about the election process.  Although I do want to cover the
presidential elections, I am also interested in all levels of elected
government.  I've searched TitleWave and Mackin, but there wasn't much
information. Most books were part of a series and didn't have much 
information
about the particular titles.  I would also be interested in DVDs.  What have 
you
found to be valuable, can't miss resources?

The replies:

A representative from Mackin replied offering their collection development 
service.  This is a free service that I have used before.  Their website is 
http://www.mackin.com

The magazine "Library Sparks" had a fun mock election that I did with my
students.  You might look at it. You can look at it at
www.nationalmockelection.org/game/.

If you will go to www.wlma.org and go to social studies CBAs you will find a 
resource...or at OSPI...
