Townsend Harris held its annual kick-off rally last Wednesday, the traditional initiation of the Election Simulation season. The Election Simulation is an event exclusive to THHS, during which the senior class represents different aspects of a real world election, including candidates, special interest groups, media coverage, and the Federal Election Commission. This year, the simulation will be solely concentrated on local politics with fourteen featured candidates in New York City elections, ranging from Mayoral to City Council candidates.
