How do I get more people to know and vote for me: Do you have any sort of social media account (twitter, facebook, instagram, etc.). If so, then join a school group or follow someone you know from your school (cuz they most probably will know other people, and those other people will know other people etc) and let everyone know that you're running for this position. If you don't have a social media account or if you want a more direct and effective way to get more votes, then try asking a school administrator or your club teacher if you can put posters on the school hallways. If so, then try to make them as creative and out-going as possible, but not too flashy. Let everyone who walks by know clearly that you want their vote.

Tips on writing and delivering a speech: If you're doing a speech, I suggest you start by looking at yourself and genuinely finding a good reason for you to be considered as a leader. Think about your good qualities and express those on paper in a clear and concise way. Don't sound arrogant, but also don't be modest. Start early and make a good rough draft, edit it, read it over, etc. Once you've made a rough draft of your speech, have multiple people read it over and make sure you take their constructive criticism and improve your speech as much as you can. Finally, start practicing your speech in front of your friends, by yourself, in front of a mirror, etc. Make sure that you know a lot of your speech by heart. Once the day comes for delivering your speech, make sure you sound confident and believe in yourself. Don't be nervous and look everyone in the eye while delivering your speech. Don't stutter and talk like you really want the position.

Hope this helped. Good luck
