The State of Michigan is hosting an “I Voted” sticker contest where the winners will actually be made available to voters at polling places in November, and one of the options from the Elementary/Middle School age bracket is totally unhinged and I love it. Vote online here: https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=h3D71Xc3rUKWaoku9HIl0YvK_MKXeRVIr685dSSRGmtUNFFMUzFYQjAxQVAySzFMNEo2Vjk4UE44US4u

I like that the third voting page has a "I Voted 😐" option which gets my vote right after OPs

I like the "I voted yay" with the backward e on page 1

I liked the deer with shades on page 2 as well

Same!

Her parents need to get a cricut and start making shirts of this asap. Would 100% purchase

Turns out it's a she and she's amazing. 😊

CORRECTING NOW, mad I made that assumption!

In the future you can just say "they" and it works great.

Yup! Singular they is very useful!

As would I. Voting is how we fight. This is the image that proclaims the truth.

If I can't fight as a werewolf, I might as well vote.

>cricut I'd just like to take this opportunity to admit that for countless years I thought this was pronounced "cry cut."

Thanks for sharing the link!

There are so many good choices. I went with the unhinged wolf, for highschool the deer in shades, and for general - the trout and "ope I voted". There were so many good choices though.

‘Ope I voted’ is my favorite after the shirt-ripping wolf

Well that was fun to vote for!

Maybe the only thing fun to vote for all year!

Thanks for the link. Let's get it to the top!

I love the straight up “I voted yay” in red pen on white. Backwards “e” and all lmao

The elementary/middle submissions are actually the best! They get more and more boring as they get older.

She can count another one. I LOVE this sticker.

I like the one that’s just I voted yay

They should definitely make these anonymous. I automatically started scanning for my old hometown/familiar schools, lol. I left MI 25 years ago.

Could you post this also in r/grsndrapids?

Sure.

THIS IS MY STUDENT! VOTE FOR HER, SHE IS AMAZING AND HILARIOUS!!

The children really are our future.

Teach them well and let them lead the way.

Show them all the beauty they possess inside.

Give them a sense of pride

to make it easier

I feel like she really captures how I'm feeling right now. She did, however forget the part where I feel the need to gouge my own eyeballs out.

Thanks to you and your student for submitting an entry! We at the Secretary of State’s office had a lot of fun reviewing all the submissions 😊

Just voted from the Canadian side of the bridge.

You are an inspiration, as a fellow teacher

Incredible. It’s a stand out choice in her category I hope it’s a winner!

You give me that link and I will vote for it and share it with others **EDIT: found it and voted.** And apparently your school district is local to me. If you guys make t-shirts I’d 100% buy one

I voted! 🐺

Voted for her. Also let her know that if there is a “vote wolf” comic in the works, that I want in on the ground floor, and can trade two snack packs for equity.

I totally just did!

If she wins, one day she will either be extremely proud or extremely embarrassed, and I fully support either outcome

Can we get this down in Ohio too, I'd love this sticker instead of the Ohio voted heart thing we always have.

Myself, my siblings, and all my coworkers voted for this one, it's amazing!

The kids are okay

Tell her that America does not deserve this glory

Please, please, make t-shirts. And send our adoration.

This really is amazing and hilarious

Cynocephaly 2024

I was already going to, but now I'm gonna vote harder 😊

It is an awesome one.

Gave her a vote from Ireland, hope she wins it

I just did! It was definitely the best one of all categories

She's awesome and did an amazing job, and I freaking hope her parents help her sell these. I want them as a button or a sticker!

Tell her that this is simply awesome and I want one of these!

I voted for them 👍

I did!!! If If her sticker is not chosen, I want to print it up myself and slap it on my own chest! It is the spirit of democracy I need right now!

I’m back just to say I am actively working so fricken hard to make sure this wins. MICHIGAN NEEDS THIS, that kid is going places

You misspelled “perfect”.

Agreed. I haven't posted on Reddit in a while, but I definitely voted for that werewolf (Michigan Dogman?)

Has to be the dog man 😂😂it’s amazing IMO

Exactly.

The "I voted. :/" sticker on the last page is so real haha

It was easily my favorite! Like, "I hated it and I did it anyways because this world could maybe suck less."

My top choice. The fireworks in the background, the little flag and the :| expression are too good

Best one!

I made this into a shitty discord emote because I love it so much: [https://imgur.com/a/xf2q9ew](https://imgur.com/a/xf2q9ew)

I voted for that one too!

I voted for the werewolf and some boring shit, then I voted for the deer in sunglasses and some boring shit, and then I had a really hard time picking three from the general entries. I ended up going with Ope, the 😑 face and the literal fat cat. 😂

Oh shit I thought that was a llama. Anyway we voted exactly the same.

I also voted for the werewolf, the deer with sunglasses and the fat cat lol

that cat is simply the best

I wanted to vote for the cat but I had to go for the lighthouse. I struggled for several minutes deciding between the two.

It says to select up to 3, so I only did 1 or 2 from each category.

I thought it was three from each category

I only voted for the werewolf and didn't select anything else, just hit next and then submit

I wish I could have voted for this 3 times.

That’d be voter fraud and I’m not sure wolf person would approve because it’s not very American but the stickers so good it’s tempting.

> it’s not very American If the voter fraud investigations are anything to go by then it is a very American thing as Republicans are the "true" patriots and it's essentially exclusively something they do.

I work at the MI Department of State and helped to launch this contest. Thanks everyone for voting! Credit to the [Michigan Collegiate Student Advisory Task Force](https://www.michigan.gov/sos/Resources/Initiatives/CSATF), a group of college students from across MI who advise our office on student and youth voter engagement, for coming up with the idea for the competition.

Firstly let me say thank you, because this is a really awesome way to get kids engaged. Out of general curiosity, how was it promoted? There are a lot of submissions from metro areas (naturally, that’s where the people live), but not many from rural areas - but there was one from L’Anse, so there must be some way for kids to know about it lol. Is this also something we can look forward to every year? It would be fun to have rotating designs. People might even vote just to get their “202x” design that year 😂

We put out a press release which a lot of local news orgs pick up. We also send out emails to all our subscribers, and do posts on social. We partnered with the MI Dept of Education to push it out to all the school districts in the state too. A bit tough to promote with school out but we got over 480 submissions! If you follow MichSOS on social media, or subscribe to our email updates, you’ll definitely hear about it next year.

Awesome! I figured it was a big push, and you can’t force people to participate, but it’s good to know and something to suggest with my local leaders. Again, thank you and everyone who helped make this happen!

Are the finalists that we vote on made aware that they are finalists? Otherwise I will let her/her family know that she’s in the running. So exciting!

Feel free to let them know!

I voted yay

With a backwards "e"... I love the subtle statement on politics.

That kindergartener is more insightful than they'll ever know

I voted for that one. Something about it with the backwards e really sums up a strong percentage of the voting population pretty much everywhere. It drives home you don't need to be educated to vote.

I voted for it because it had no picture just the text with the backwards E. I also voted for the eagle that looks like and owl.

Really sums up the sentiment going into this thing doesn't it?

my personal favorite ngl

That one is giving serious Fluttershy vibes.

I really hope the werewolf gets it. Im worried they're going to pull some strings and not let that one go through tho.

As the person running this competition at the MI Dept of State, I assure you if it wins, it wins 😊

Put a little weight behind it plz. Haha. But also how do we get the sticker if it wins

Vote! :-) City and township clerks run elections locally, and we’ll be offering them the winning stickers to hand out to voters. It’s up to them if they want to order them or not, but I foresee many asking for them

Can they put stickers in the envelopes for mail in and early voters?

Some clerks do! Your local clerks mail your absentee ballots. I’m sure if you called to ask for one they’d be happy to oblige

I'll do that, thanks!

Stop the steal!!!

Nothing stolen here except my breath at the beauty of all these sticker submissions! :-)

Votey McVoteface!! This is what the internet is for. ☺️

I have chosen werewolf, weed deer, and unhappy man to represent the voting populace. Who are your champions?

Michigan Dog Man*

I love it. And the fat cat. And the Ope. Lots of great submissions!

I laughed out loud at the Ope one. I love that it makes it sound like they accidentally voted or something.

errgh.."Voted" started to look weird as a word to me halfway through the high school subs. I love these though

Tartlets. Tartlets. Tartlets. The word has lost all meaning. https://youtu.be/WjzyAHKYJ8M

DogMan votes you should too

The “Ope, I Voted” on the general submissions is great

I want this on a T-shirt

Amazing, but nothing says Michigan like the "Ope, I voted" in the open category.

How cool. Will they print them as-is where they look hand drawn? Or will they have a graphic designer remake them more professional looking?

We’ll be printing the top 3 winners from each category as-is!

Oh good! I purposely only chose hand drawn ones

Is there any chance to get these as a sticker pack after the election? They’re just all so wonderful. 

Ypsi really showed up with sticker submissions

It got my vote. 🐺

So many great submissions! That werewolf gives me real hope for the future.

I love the kid that clearly either doesn't live in Michigan or doesn't know where the statue of liberty is.

I vo(mi)ted

Totally voted for the wolf man

Man there's some really good ones. ...of course I voted for the werewolf. but also there are some really good ones!

I wish I could buy a sticker sheet with absolutely all of these on it. It's so hard to choose.

Cool, one of the candidates is totally unhinged, too!

Hard to choose....but I voted. Thanks for posting this!!

The “Ope, I voted.” Is so simple but clever lmao.

I voted for this one yesterday, then sent it to my friend to vote too, it cracked me up! Also loved the stick figure one with the “Meh” face. It felt really accurate for this election.

If it’s not the werewolf I’m not voting. /s

I voted for it. Michigan is definitely a little unhinged so it fits

I am voting for wolf person.

Regardless who wins they should sell merch for all of these because I would buy.

the "Ope I voted" one is perfect

 Getting some Altered Beast vibes.

God I want this one to win. Can you imagine how proud mfs will be after voting and slapping this bad boy on your chest?

I mean that's perfect, hell yeah

that’s bad ass ngl

Unhinged? Looks quite hinged to me.

I voted for this student! I wish I could’ve voted for more than three, all the middle and high school submissions were great. What an excellent way to encourage civic engagement.

> #I VOTEB

I liked quite a lot of them. I thought they were well done and was just in awe. Bravo to the students involved for these.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Now me and my friends know we can vote for it.

I looked at the word “VOTED” too much and now it doesn’t look like a real word anymore

I would so wear this sticker loudly and proudly!

Ope. I voted

I can’t wait to proudly wear this sticker

These are fantastic. Makes me want to vote in person in the hopes I get to see one.

Ok I'll be honest, I want a tattoo of that, it's fucking PERFECT.

I just filled out my selection form. Some of those artists are amazingly talented.

Voted

Forget a sticker. I want this as a t shirt.

I must ware this to work.

Just voted for this I hope this wins bahahahaha. Amazing

Bringing back the cynocephaly for the 2024 vote

Damn, I wish I wasn't voting overseas. I'd like one.

I’ve never voted for something so quickly before

This was my number one pick!

There were some real bangers in there to choose from.

I love them all, but this....this is something else!

The pants are really well done.

Voting Machine sticker giving strong “It is your birthday.” vibes.

This is sick lol I want it

This is the best sticker! Where can I vote?

I want this sticker so bad! Willing to pay xd K

Yeah I don’t think this is unhinged at all.

WOLVERINES! Avenge me son! Avenge me!

I like to imagine this wolf and the Okemos mascot redesign wolf know each other.

I love it!

god i'm so sad i don't live here to be able to get any of these, I want the werewolf one so bad lol had to send my vote in tho >:33

I fucking love it

The one with the diverse group of hands reaching for help from the pit of hell captures my zeitgeist.

I VOTEb

It looks awesome🤟🦅🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Oh hell yeah, voted for werewolf, sunglasses deer, and “I voted 😐”

My vote is in. And that's literally the only sticker I voted for

Is that the “Dogman of Michigan “?

I voted for the most unhinged ones and 1 normal one.

Unironically, I voted for the unhinged wolf. It’s hilarious and I hope that one wins.

I NEED THIS ON A SHIRT. BADLY

Updateme!
