The eight towns of Cornhusker Boys State held elections earlier this week to determine the leadership of their cities, school districts, and legislative representatives. Following the elections, the delegates attend workshops specific to their elected positions to learn more about their new roles and responsibilities. Once training is complete, the students will engage in a government simulation experience where they will hold meetings and consider legislation and policies for their individual communities. We are proud of the winners as well as the challengers who gave their best efforts and contributed to the experience!

Town Election Results – 2025
The first step in forming the model government at American Legion Cornhusker Boys’ State is the town elections. Each floor of the University of Nebraska residence hall represents a “town” that elects a mayor, city council, school board, and state senators. After the elections, these newly elected officials participate in workshops to learn about their responsibilities and duties. Once they understand their roles, they will begin debating legislation and policies in their respective meetings.
