Voting and Civic Participation LITERACY · 7TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. Voting is the most familiar form of civic participation but far from the only one. Citizens also attend public meetings, comment on proposed rules, serve on juries, join campaigns, contact representatives, sign petitions, and volunteer. Turnout varies enormously by election: presidential contests draw around two-thirds of eligible voters, while local elections that decide school budgets and zoning often draw under a fifth, which means a small, organised group can determine outcomes. Registration rules, polling hours, and identification requirements differ by state and measurably affect who votes. Participation compounds: people who attend one meeting or vote in one election are far more likely to do so again. Questions: 1 Name three forms of participation besides voting. 2 Why does low turnout in local elections matter? 3 What does it mean that participation compounds? www.littleactivity.com 7th Grade · Literacy
