"My Vote IS my protest! And, my hope for a future for ALL!"
We know that we the people decide who represents us. Through our vote, we decide what comes next.
In solidarity,
The No Kings: Vote Early Coalition
What we have done so far:
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, isn't focused on protest.
Instead, October 17th, is a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing our community together to vote early, help others do so, and ensure 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 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.
