A California teacher has sparked controversy by promising a pizza party exclusively to students who voted for Kamala Harris in a mock election, a video that has since gone viral reveals.

The teacher justified this decision by stating, "Democrats are more for feeding the hungry," implying that only those who voted for Harris deserved the reward.

According to Gateway Pundit, the video was shared on social media by the widely followed LibsofTikTok account, a liberal watchdog group. The identities of the school, parent, and teacher involved were not disclosed in the post, making it impossible for the Gateway Pundit to independently verify the content of the video.

The video commences with a mother displaying the mock election ballot from a California school and discussing the situation with her daughter. The student reveals that classes who voted for Harris would be rewarded with beauty supplies and a pizza party, while those who voted for Trump would not.

The footage then transitions to the parent purportedly calling the teacher, who explains that only one of the five periods would not receive the party. The teacher further justifies her decision by saying, "The Democrats are more for feeding the hungry, free medical care, more services — just pay higher taxes, so I would be willing to buy pizza for the class." She confirms that the class that voted for Trump would not receive free pizza, adding, "They just do what the conservatives do — which is pay for yourself."

The video concludes with the mother offering to buy pizza for the class that voted for Trump, much to the teacher's audible surprise and disappointment. Whether the mother was able to fulfill her offer remains uncertain. This incident serves as a stark reminder of the importance of impartiality in education, and the potential consequences of allowing personal political beliefs to influence teaching practices.
