Can a Viral âI Votedâ Sticker Contest Boost Election Turnout?
Dittus, the election board commissioner, said the county is excited to see whether the contest impacts its overall election turnout in November. In the meantime, the county is using attention itâs been given to inform voters of a special election and primary voting happening on August 23. Voters arenât used to going out in mid-August, Dittus explained, and itâs been challenging to let them know itâs happening.
Ulster County will give out the five runner-up stickers during the August election, Dittus said. When asked about her favorite design, she remained coy.
âI actually havenât voted in the contest, lol. Iâll remain impartial as a good elections official,â Dittus said.
