Rallies like this are incredibly powerful. They show our unity, they show our strength, and they show our passion. But let me be perfectly clear: A protest is the beginning, not the end. A sign in your hands today is a statement, but a ballot in your hands tomorrow is a demand!Our vote is our crown. It is the ultimate check on overreach, tyranny, and corporate greed. They want to pass laws to make voting harder because they are terrified of what happens when we show up. They know that when everyday people claim their power, the tables turn.We cannot afford to sit this out. We are not just voting for candidates; we are voting to preserve the right to vote itself. We are voting for a life we can afford, for our fundamental freedoms, and for the future of our democracy.So here is our mandate today. Join Resist Wilton Manors and Indivisible Wilton Manors at Freedom Corner in Fort Lauderdale. Bring your signs that promote VOTING!!!
**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.*
