For fans of Andrew Smith and Frank Portman and the movies Election and Ferris Bueller's Day Off comes a hilarious and satirical novel about the highs and (very low) lows of the electoral process, proving that the popular vote is the one that matters most. Stacey Wynn was the clear front-runner for Lincoln High student council president. But then French-Canadian transfer student Julia Romero entered the race...and put the moves on Stacey's best friend/campaign adviser, Brian. Stacey also didn't count on Tony Guo, resident stoner, whose sole focus is on removing the school's ban of his favorite chocolate milk, becoming the voice of the little guy, thanks to a freshman political "mastermind" with a blue Mohawk. Three candidates, three platforms, and a whirlwind of social media, gaffes, high school drama, and protests make for a ridiculously hilarious political circus that just may hold some poignant truth somewhere in the mix.

Snarky, whip-smart kids involved in crazy shenanigans while running for school office. Extremely likable, diverse characters, lots of fun dialogue, and pop culture references. Reminds me of the movie Election with Reese Witherspoon. This is a funny high school version of the 2016 election. Very welcome in today's political climate when politicians can never get along and have their own best interests at heart. I will give this to kids who are looking for something smart, timely, and funny
Language (examples: boner and f**k) and typical teenage inappropriate conversations but it isn’t pervasive so that’s good. ( )
