No Kings: Vote Early - Potomac Defenders of Democracy, Dumfries, VA · No Kings
Join us on October 17th from 10 AM - Noon at the intersection of Route 1 and River Heritage Boulevard in Dumfries, VA for our latest visibility event!
We will start the day with donuts and fellowship before launching our signs to encourage everyone to VOTE EARLY IN-PERSON! We will also help YOU to get the word out to your friends and family about the importance of this election and how to encourage all eligible voters to participate!
We keep the fun going with **Chalk the Vote** where everyone goes out in their community to decorate sidewalks with messages encouraging early voting and information about the upcoming election in Virginia. Come Join Us!
**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.*
