election project

In the fall of 2008, with the upcoming election, our English class gave us the responsibility of not only educating ourselves, but also educating the public on the propositions and issues facing the November election. It was our role as students to pick a proposition or issue, do both extensive and objective research, and then write a paper with our stance on the subject. After that, our school held an exhibition to educate the public on our discoveries in a fair and unbiased way by including students with both sides to the subject in each presentation of knowledge.

My choice in this project was Proposition 1A, which would institute a High Speed Rail that travels up the coast of California. The research process was mostly completed through online websites and articles
