SUMMARY:No Kings: Vote Early!
DESCRIPTION:Join Hands Off! Haywood on the public sidewalk at Dayco Drive & South Main Street\, Waynesville (near the entrance to Walmart parking lot) to gear up for an election that will take back the country. \n\nYou are encouraged to bring your own signs\, or we will have signs available. We are defending our rights to assemble peacefully and speak freely as assured by the First Amendment. This is a PUBLIC sidewalk\, so we have the right to be here\, but we cannot block the sidewalks or go into the street. We are committed to peaceful protests. \nWe decide who represents us. We decide what comes next. \nFor 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. \nNow\, 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. \nBecause 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. We encourage you to make an afternoon of it: start off in Waynesville\, carpool to Sylva\, stay for the protest\, and move to Bridge Park to hear candidate Jamie Ager speak. \nNo Kings: Vote Early events are nonpartisan and are designed to increase participation from all eligible voters. \nA 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.
