This week we focus on the central Wisconsin Kids Voting convention, which takes place on the UW-Marathon County campus in Wausau on Tuesday, March 20th. More than 250 regional high school students will participate in the event, which is modeled after our national political conventions. The Democratic and Republican students will hold debates, and then each group will choose a presidential candidate.
On Thursday, Route 51 host Glen Moberg will present highlights in the event and moderate an hour long discussion with the two winning high school candidates, and with Mike Otten, the Executive Director of Kids Voting USA Wisconsin Marathon County.
