About this engagement

No Kings: Vote Early! Annandale, VA, I-495 Bridge Brigade

JOIN US!!

Voting is our Super Power! Let’s get our community ready to show their POWER!

We gather with friends, old and new, to bring attention to our Rights and Responsibilities at the ballot box! We bring positive energy to encourage the almost 40% of the eligible voters who sat out the last presidential election. No judgment just action moving forward!

With joy and in the spirit of fun, we come together with signs that encourage voting in general. Keep it simple with a “VOTE” sign or be more creative–just keep it positive, please!

We encourage costumes, hats, capes, super hero masks…or just plain ol’ you. After all, if we vote, we are all Super Heroes!!

**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.*
