Stories to talk about this evening:

Maryland Kids Vote for Hillary Clinton for President

If kids in Maryland could vote, they would elect Hillary Clinton to be the 45th president of the United States. That's according to the results of a Scholastic poll, which included 153,000 kids nationwide from kindergarten through 12th grade voting by online and mail-in ballot.

In Maryland, Clinton received 66 percent of the vote, compared to Donald Trump's 21 percent. Thirteen percent of kids voted for somebody else. See the national Scholastic results.
