Ballot the dog
coloring contest
Ballot the Dog is a cute mascot for the importance of voting. With his fun dance moves and helpful tips, he spotlights the joy of voting! See his cute :30 video and additional teacher/parent resources below.
We’re so excited to see 582 entries! Thank you to the teachers and principals who support students learning and talents!
Thank you teachers and students!
CONGRATULATIONS Student Vote Winners!
Technical support update: The system split the contest into two parts and wouldn’t combine the totals. Therefore, we decided to award winners in both Part 1 and Part 2!
See below for ALL of the winners! You can view the vote report and official tallies above each winner list.
We will get the prizes and certificates distributed directly to each school in the next couple of weeks. Student winners will receive their certificate with 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place, a Ballot the Dog button, and a $10 Amazon Gift Card.
NOTE: If you search the entries, you won’t see the vote tallies due to their technical issues. All of the tallies are provided in the links.
