Coldwater High School senior Ben Obringer explains to sixth-graders Omar Segundo and Jon Wenning how the Electoral College comes into play during an election. The senior civics class will have an open house 7-8 p.m. Thursday in the high school media center (second floor library) to allow the public to view their "Rock the Vote" projects. Seniors created nine booths to educate themselves and others on election issues, presidential candidates and other topics associated with the political process to help voters make an informed decision on Nov. 4.
