NO KINGS: VOTE EARLY -  UPSTATE SC

** UPDATE 4: Traveler's Rest will be showing out too!

**UPDATE 3: Pendleton is doing it up with a whole block party!

**UPDATE 2: Seneca has entered the chat! 

**UPDATE: Additional location added! Spartanburg is joining the fun (and more locations TBA!)

We've spent the last two years showing up in the streets. Now it's time to take that people power to the ballot box.

Early voting in South Carolina begins Monday, Oct. 19 and runs through Oct. 31. Voting early has many benefits, including helping mitigate voter suppression efforts and other barriers that can make voting more difficult.

So, on October 17, we're hitting the road, bringing No Kings: Vote Early to communities across the Upstate for a full day of voter visibility, education, and community engagement.

If the goal is to get people informed and ready to vote, visibility matters.

Laurens will be our vehicle decorating stop to turn your ride into a rolling reminder to vote early. The Anderson, Easley, Greer, and Simpsonville stops will be picket-style visibility actions on public sidewalks, putting the message where people can see it. We'll finish the day in Greenville with a community rally at Falls Park featuring topical speakers and music.

Bring signs about early voting, making a voting plan, election information, or factual reminders about participating in our elections.

Please skip "register to vote" signs. Voter registration ends October 4 at 11:59 PM, so hopefully everyone has visited SCVOTES.GOV to register and verify their registration before then!

The goal is simple: every community we visit should know more than they did before we got there.
