Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

The only downside to being a permanent absentee voter is that I didn't get one of these.
I actually dropped mine off at the township clerks office just so I could get one of the new stickers.
Sadly, they were out of the werewolf.
Honest to God I think these stickers might be a significant driver for the increased turnout.
Can you imagine if a 12 year old saved democracy with werewolf art?
As a European I'm low key considering looking for one on EBay after the election. It's one for the history books.
I accidentally grabbed 2. I could be sitting on a gold mine!
IDK, they're talking about dancing going on at some polling locations. That sounds fun.
Some states mail a sticker with the ballot.
(yes, this is legitimately one of the available stickers, and I was super pumped about it)
But Owen...you're Canadian..! :-O
What state/locale is this sticker from? I very much admire this sense of humor. Were the other options as entertaining?
Michigan, and that's where Jordan's werewolf came from too. They're all pretty fantastic. Someone in another thread paired their cat sticker with a Harris Walz cat hat.
Ah, I see now. Thank you for the link. They are indeed wonderful, but I love the simplicity of Owen's. All are heaps nicer than ours which now seem boring.
Originally Canadian, but a dual citizen now. I'm one of those immigrants who came and stole a job.
I wore that with pride today at work.
I think it's earned a place of honor on my work badge.
Ours was cute
Non-american here, what does the werewolf represent? (Or is it just because it's cool?)
Michigan had a contest to design an "I Voted" sticker, the winning design was from a 12 year old.
You're from MI? You related to a Jacob? Won't ask or say anything further.
Nope, I'm in Oregon, our sticker is boring. :)
Could be related to a Jacob. Grand dad was one of 12 kids and 11 survived to adulthood. Sooo... 🤷♂️ I can't keep track of everybody.
Okay. Well meh then. Not a small world. Which is fine.
I so wanted one of these. And I’m in NC.
That sticker makes me wish I lived in Michigan and voted in person.
