Dear MEL Topic Readers,

US election: ‘How we learn about voting in India, France and US’

Today is an election day for the United States of America. As the US societies are becoming more diverse, this presidential election seems to have become a very decisive one. But what do teenagers think about politics and elections? Here are interviews with teenagers about their views, their family and school influences on elections in the US, India, the world’s largest democratic country with over 800 million voters, and France, a diehard democratic republic. Interestingly, the voter turnout for presidential or national elections of these three democratic countries is around 56%, 70%, and 67% respectively. So, despite the heated media coverage and election campaigns in the US and around the world, Americans don’t seem to be so eager to cast their ballots for the last few decades. Why so?

Enjoy watching the video and get a glimpse of soon-to-be voters’ views.
