I voted sticker

Election day memento

An I voted sticker is a small adhesive label given to voters after casting a ballot, typically bearing an American flag or patriotic design.

The stickers serve as proof of participation and mild social encouragement—wearing one signals civic virtue and may prompt others to vote.

On election days, photos of I voted stickers flood social media: Just got my I voted sticker!
