Because I voted by mail, I missed getting an "I Voted" sticker this year, but out on a walk...

...today I found a perfectly good sticker, with its peel-off backing still in place, on the ground on a trail in the park.



Then after I left the park, walking home, I saw this:

Just 2 years ago, Michigan voters passed a proposal to allow absentee voting to all, no excuses needed. They sent us all ballot applications, made it very easy. What great timing, as the state was at least somewhat prepared for the increase in mail-in ballots during this crazy pandemic year.

I saved my sticker to wear on election day.

“I vomited”. Since you have a cat logo, I figured that might hit home.

I saved mine as a souvenir. My spouse wore his while he was teaching his course on Zoom ... as an example to students (or at least to those students here in the US; some are still back in their home countries in Asia and Europe).
