**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, this No Kings is not purely a protest. Instead, on October 17th, it’s a day to send a message and to make a plan to vote and ensuring every eligible voter understands their options for how to vote and has the opportunity to make their voice heard.
We are also focused on supporting public education by encouraging a “No” vote on the spending cap question that will appear on our ballots.
Plans include hearing brief remarks from Executive Councilor, Karen Liot Hill, having tables with candidate literature, lawn signs and voting information, and going out to route 4 for visibility!
We would like to focus our signs on voting messages and will update you with information.
*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.*
“No Kings: Vote Early events are nonpartisan and are designed to increase participation from all eligible voters. “
