Worcester Launches “Create the Vote” Campaign, Residents Invited to Design Election Day Stickers

For Immediate Release: 8/12/2024 2:22 pm

WORCESTER, Mass. – The City of Worcester’s Cultural Development Division and Election Commission announced Monday the “Create the Vote” campaign, inviting residents to design election day stickers.

Worcester residents are invited to submit designs reimagining the sticker voters receive after casting their ballot on Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 5. Submissions must be received by Sunday, Sept. 1, 2024. Finalist designs will be selected and shared on social media for public voting to determine winners. Voting will close on Sunday, Sept. 8, 2024, to meet printing and mailing deadlines. Winning designs will be available in multiple languages for in-person and mail-in Worcester voters. Creators of winning designs will each receive a $300 prize.

“After the tremendous success of our 2020 Create the Vote public campaign, which distributed over 55,000 stickers featuring designs by eight local artists, we are thrilled to partner with the Election Commission again to reactivate this creative voter engagement initiative,” said Assistant Cultural Development Officer Yaffa Fain.

Using the phrase “My vote counts,” Worcester designers are encouraged to submit their designs in English and additional languages. Designs will be printed on the circular stickers distributed to voters throughout election season this fall.

More than 16,000 Worcester residents have requested to vote by mail. All Vote-By-Mail materials for the November election must be mailed by early October.

Worcester residents and youth may submit up to three designs through an online application, which includes full project details and criteria: https://forms.worcesterma.gov/f/CreateVoteCampaign
