No voting sticker? No problem!
CNN iReport asked people to post images of themselves with their voting stickers to prove they voted. Not everyone had a sticker, but plenty of people found other ways to demonstrate that they participated in the election. Here are five ways they showed that they had done their civic duty.
1. Print it out!
- If you don't have a sticker in your area, you can print out this snazzy image at home.
- Kimberly Hicks, who lives in New York, says she wasn't able to get stickers from her polling place, but she used the template and printed out her own.
I voted! Thanks to CNN iReport for giving me the sticker NY didn't. I feel complete now! #ivotedcnn #electionday #election2012- iReporter Chris Morrow of San Diego, California, was able to vote in New York. Since she also didn't get a sticker, she downloaded the CNN iReport template to her phone and showed us her screen.
I voted in New York City!Doing my civic duty and voting early this morning. New York doesn't give out the 'I Voted' sticker so I downloaded the CNN image onto my ...- Or just show your candy.
2. Draw your own
- Courtney Flannery in Warsaw, Indiana, was hoping to get a sticker. When she didn't get one, she made her own image and posted it to CNN iReport.
No Stickers in Northern IndianaThere were no stickers given in my district due to "budget cuts." The whole reason I voted today and not early was for that stupid thing!- For those going the drawn-on-paper route, just get some pieces of tape and you're ready to rumble.
- This person wrote on their hand
- We heart this.
- Tanya Beatty of Los Angeles, California, held up her explanation for a lack of sticker.
- Here's a similar approach.
- We received an image via CNN iReport from Kate Coleman of Wilmington, Delaware, showing a pretty spectacular sticker.
No sticker, no problem!No binders full of "I voted" stickers here in Delaware...but I wasn't worried. Many thanks to the sticker making skills of a great coworker!3. Post-It notes
