Tuesday is Election Day. After months of campaigns, debates and political ads, it’s time for Americans to decide who should be the next president. Will voters reelect President Barack Obama, the Democrat? Or will they decide the United States needs new leadership and vote in former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, the Republican?
Often, we don’t know who has won a presidential election until very late at night. Sometimes it can take days — or even weeks — to know who the winner is. We’re not saying you should often stay up past bedtime on a school night, but you could tell your parents that you want to stay up because elections are an important part of U.S. history.
