Michigan’s ‘I Voted’ Stickers to Get a New Look This November

In an exceptional break from tradition, Michigan’s iconic “I Voted” sticker is set to receive a quirky revamp this coming November. The Michigan Secretary of State has unveiled the new designs, which include eclectic visions such as a werewolf tearing off its shirt, a chic deer donning sunglasses, and a yielding cat with a malicious smirk. The innovative designs are the winning entries of the state-wide “I Voted” sticker contest, which was categorized into elementary, high school, and general brackets.

Diverse Winning Designs Announced

The winning designs expose the diverse creative imagination of Michigan dwellers. One of the winning stickers is a product of a hard-working middle-school student from Grosse Pointe, it features an intense graphic of a werewolf against the backdrop of an American flag, apparently tearing off its shirt. Another is a colorful rendition of the word ‘hooray’ created by a dedicated high school student from Holly High School.

The ingenious designs were selected from a pool of over 480 entries and crowned through public voting. The competition witnessed the participation of enthusiastic designers across the state and garnered more than 57,700 public votes, according to official reports.
