You know those highly coveted "I Voted" stickers that poll workers hand you after your cast your ballot? Well, the next time you exercise your 15th Amendment right, the patriotic (and adhesive) badge you have to show for it may have been designed by a City School District of Â鶹ӰÒô student.
But, perhaps predictably, the fifth grader
Annie Morton's art was chosen as a finalist in Â鶹ӰÒô County's 2025 "I Voted" contest - a friendly competition sponsored by the Â鶹ӰÒô County Legislature, 
Â鶹ӰÒô County Board of Elections, League of Women Voters of Â鶹ӰÒô County, and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in an effort to inspire youth participation in, and excitement about, the democratic process. But, let's be honest, those of us 18+ love to flex our civic participation with a sticker, too!
There are many creative entries but the Montessori Magnet School student's is the most Â鶹ӰÒô-ish of them all. Annie's beautifully combines Nipper, a tulip bed and the city's iconic skyline into one patriotic motif () that will look perfect on your shirt or water bottle come November.
Voting ends August 29 - good luck, Annie!
