Bring your friends and family to show up and show out in support of early voting and election protection!
This rally’s focus is on voting and voting early. Voting early is one of the easiest and best ways to protect election integrity.
In that vein, we will have a table where you can: double check your registration, sign up for a ride to the polls, see sample ballots for your district, and receive information regarding the issues that are on the ballot (provided by the SD Secretary of State).
There will also be lawn games and lots of signs to hold up to boost visibility of this important message.
No Kings and Indivisible are committed to keeping these events NON-PARTISAN and NON-VIOLENT.
We’ll be collecting donations for Midwest Street Medicine – an organization helping the increasing unhoused population in Aberdeen.
Please bring donations of:
– Winter hats
– Winter gloves
– Winter socks
– Hand and Feet warmers
– Food snack packs
**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, No Kings: Vote Early, is not purely a protest. Instead, on October 17th, it’s a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing **our community** together to make a plan to vote early and ensuring 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 us in 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.*
