Louisiana Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin is announcing a digital, downloadable sticker for the upcoming Nov. 3 and Dec. 5 elections. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, polling locations will not distribute physical “I Voted” stickers to help protect the health and safety of election workers and voters.

Voters may access the digital sticker by visiting sos.la.gov/IVotedSticker. After downloading the sticker, it can be displayed on social media or used as a digital background for electronic devices. Voters are also encouraged to share their pictures using the #GeauxVoteLouisiana hashtag.

“Knowing the excitement voters have for ‘I Voted’ stickers, we wanted to make sure there was a way for voters to express their pride in voting,” Ardoin said. “So in the midst of a pandemic, we introduce the Louisiana version of an electronic ‘I Voted’ sticker.”

Early voting for the Presidential General/Open Congressional Primary continues through Tuesday, Oct. 27 (excluding Sundays), from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 3, from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.
