October 17 - No Kings: Vote Early

For over a year, millions of us have come together to send an undeniable message: In America, we

have no kings. Power does not belong to politicians, strongmen, or billionaires. It belongs to the people.

Now, we are taking the next step in our movement. 

This will be a nationwide day of nonpartisan voter participation. 

This is not a protest or street march. This is about turning our collective people power into direct voter

power right where we live. 

The choices made by those in power directly affect our daily lives – and elections determine who has

the power to make those choices. 

That is why we are organizing hyper-local events in every corner of the country to ensure every

neighbor, friend, and coworker has a plan to vote early and make their voice count on their own terms. 

 Whether your state offers in-person early voting, absentee ballots, or requires voting on Election Day,

early preparation is key.

National action starts with local power. When we organize our blocks and show up together, we prove

that the people – not unaccountable leaders – decide what comes next. 

No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.
