Ac- cording to the two mock elections and the mock debates held by Star Gazer and Probe, students were taking a genuine interest in the government. Through the month of October and early November, students would see posters and banners urging them to support various candidates for the na- tional election and the school’s mock elections. Over half of the MN student body got involved by voting, working on the campaign of a candidate, or working on the debates. The Star Gazer poll, which was dis- tributed to all third hour classes, showed Ronald Reagan as the next president. The Probe mock election was held during all lunch periods and the outcome showed the re-election of Jimmy Carter. The results of both polls were close and showed even support on all sides. Three mock presidential debates were sponsored by Probe. These de- bates took place during school, and all students were invited to attend. Tom Firasek, Junior, was the moderator for these debates with John Cager, Sen- ior, as President Carter; Mark Anto- lick, Junior, as Ronald Reagan; and Bri- an Friedman, Senior, as John Ander- son. ‘The debates were a lot of fun and a lot of kids wanted to listen,’’ said Tom Firasek. MN took an active part in the 1980 election by informing students of the issues and urging them to support the candidates.
