County Board of Elections wants 13 to 18-year-olds to design 2023 \u2018I Voted\u2019 sticker<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Are you looking to share your creative and artistic abilities? When someone says ‘I Voted’ what comes to your mind?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Voters proudly wear and display their ‘I Voted’ sticker on social media, water bottles or shirts every year.\u00a0This year, the Madison County Board of Elections is hoping that sticker will showcase local artwork by a Madison County youth.\u00a0The Madison County Board of Elections Office is hosting an \u201cI Voted\u201d sticker art contest to help promote voting and increase engagement from younger audiences; the winning artwork will be featured on the \u201cI Voted\u201d sticker handed out to Madison County voters during the 2023 general election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This contest is open to any resident, between the ages of 13 and 18, of Madison County or any student who attends a Madison County School District.\u00a0Artwork should be submitted digitally to Madison County by June 1, 2023.\u00a0From the submissions, six finalists will be chosen by the MOBOCES New Visions Law, Government, and Public Administration Class, along with members of the Madison County Board of Elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The finalists will be announced June 16, 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The public will have a chance to vote on the top six designs in person during the primary elections beginning June 17 or online until July 21. The winner will be announced Aug. 1, 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artwork must be submitted digitally via email to pio@madisoncounty.ny.gov<\/a> or through the online form at madisoncounty.ny.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This contest is a new opportunity for our youth to participate in a creative, community project, as well as a way for our community to take an interest in their local elections.\u00a0Madison County Board of Elections looks forward to seeing all the creative submissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
