The tradition of rewarding voters for doing their democratic duty returns this year with free latkes, cookies, doughnuts, frozen yogurt, beer, and other treats.
Stop by these businesses and organizations on Election Day with your “I voted” sticker (or in some cases, just tell them you voted) and pick up your treat.
Pizza to the Polls
The nonpartisan nonprofit delivers free pizza to voters waiting in long polling lines, and is handing out 1,500 slices in Philly over the course of the day.
Stops on Tuesday will include polling sites at Bright Hope Baptist Church (1601 N. 12th St., 10:30 a.m. – 12 p.m.), South Philadelphia High School (2101 S. Broad St., 2:30-4:30 p.m.), and West Philadelphia High School (4901 Chestnut St., 4-5:30 p.m.). There will also be music, art installations, Eagles cheerleader visits, and swag giveaways at the three locations throughout the day.
Famous 4th Street Delicatessen
700 S. 4th St.
The deli is a traditional election-day gathering spot for politicans, and is also thanking sticker-wearing patrons with either a gratis serving of latkes (potato pancakes) or a cookie of their choice.
Love City Brewing
1023 Hamilton Street
“Anyone who asks for it can get a free 10 oz. beer, but it would be cool if you also voted!” Love City promises. They’ll also have an election watch party from 6 to 11 p.m.: “It might be stressful, but it’s better than stressing alone at home.”
FCM Hospitality
Several FCM Hospitality restaurants and bars will offer a free Mainstay Beer to those showing an “I Voted” sticker. They include Craft Hall, Harper’s Garden, Juno, Lola’s Garden, Lucy’s, Rosy’s Taco Bar, Rosy’s Taco Bar East, and Walnut Garden.
Ikea
Participating bistros at the Swedish furniture retailer are offering a free frozen yogurt on Election Day. The coupon is available here.
