If You Vote in Person at Your Polling Place - Wear Blue [View all]

No political hats. No political slogans on T-shirts. Just blue. That cannot be taken as electioneering, but it will make a statement, nevertheless.

Dig out a blue shirt or top that is blue. Wear it on election day. Show your true colors.

If You Vote Blue, Wear Blue!

Please share the idea on your social media venues. Thanks.
