## No Kings: Vote Early comes to Northborough!
Join us at 10am on October 17th for energetic conversation, donuts, and coffee – followed by community voting. We’ll gather in the parking lot of Trinity Church, and at 10:30am walk a few doors down to Town Hall to vote early.
October 17 is the first day of Early Voting in Massachusetts – so a perfect time to celebrate and participate. Be among the first to vote in this critical election by voting in the official Northborough Early Voting location. If you received a mail-in ballot you can bring it along and put it in the official ballot drop box at Town Hall.
Our discussion will cover the importance of voting, and the challenges to our democracy when voters are disenfranchised and elections are challenged.
After voting we’ll gather again at Trinity Church to celebrate voting. Then many of us will travel to [No Kings: Vote Early Worcester](https://www.mobilize.us/nokings/event/1020894/) for our region’s largest event.
Many thanks to Trinity Church for allowing us to have this event so close to Town Hall. If the weather isn’t cooperating, we’ll be meeting inside.
**We decide who represents us. We decide what comes next.**
For more than a year, millions of people have come together to reject the idea that power belongs to kings, billionaires, or politicians who believe they are above the people and the law.
Now, we are taking the next step, turning people power into voter power. Unlike previous No Kings actions, No Kings: Vote Early, is not purely a protest. Instead, on October 17th, it’s a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing **our community** together to make a plan to vote early and ensuring every eligible voter understands their options for how to vote and has the opportunity to make their voice heard.
Because no one person gets to decide our leaders before voters do. On October 17th, join us in local events across the country as we get out the early vote and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings.
*No Kings: Vote Early events are nonpartisan and are designed to increase participation from all eligible voters.*
*A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.*
