As an outsider viewing in from all, I have to say these stickers are so fucking cool! Was there some kind of a contest to have kids draw pictures and finalists were picked? Does this always happen in Michigan?

[–] ricecake@sh.itjust.works 28 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Yup, there was a contest. I think it was our first time, and I honestly think that it's had a degree of impact on voter turnout, specifically because people fucking love the werewolf one.

They were out of it when I dropped my ballot off, and I'm actively a little sad about not getting that sticker.

I voted by mail and didn't get a single sticker. My life is in shambles.

I voted in person last election and they “ran out” of stickers. I feel ya deeply.

I like how one is just a fish lol

Look more closely at the scales ;)

Were I a Michigander, I'd choose either the trout or the wide-eyed dog. But they are all super rad.

[–] ech@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

The dog(?) one is my fav too.

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I didn't know about the fish.. I want it.

I guess first order of business is to get rid of the electoral college so other states matter, but second order of business is every state gets badass stickers.

Georgia had four different stickers available during early voting on Friday, which was nice because I could pick something other than the asinine, propagandistic "I secured my vote" one that they've been shoving down our throats the last few elections.

I wish I had thought to collect them. My daughter grabbed a full set, but I fear she probably used them.

[–] SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz 3 points 10 months ago

What does Georgia's stickers look like?

I'm sorry you missed your chance to collect! Maybe you could request that someone who hasn't voted yet today pick you up some? It's not too late!

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 10 months ago

amaze, thank you for sharing

[–] thenextguy@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

They let you vote 8 times?

[–] SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz 3 points 10 months ago

Nah, but I got there early and it was full of elderly folks who didn't even glance at the stickers. The guy was nice enough to allow me to take what I wanted! (:
