As with every vote of note in the United States, our ol' chum Damian Bennett has again produced a series of election posters for the mid-terms of 2026, focusing on voter protection. (Thanks to Sarah for the Instalink.) One of them — VOTER ID — is reproduced above, check out the other two at his Behance page on GOTV 2026 Election Protection Posters: PERSONAL USPO MAIL DROP and the spooky UP-TO-DATE VOTER ROLLS. (GOTV posters from earlier election cycles can be found here and here and here.) This Fall, the artist from Waverly, Virginia, adds the following comment:
If you are an American citizen and of legal age, you have the right to vote. This right requires government to give notice of elections; make polls accessible and open throughout the appointed day; maintain the integrity and completeness of voter rolls; record and count all legal votes; publish the results in a timely manner. What this right does not require is every possible personal convenience. Election protection helps prevent legal votes being cancelled by cheaters and elections being rigged by powerful interests. A protected vote requires some effort, but considerably less than applying for a gun permit or a day at the DMV.

I love how creative and original this is! It’s refreshing to see something that feels genuinely different.
