The “I Voted” sticker, a simple yet meaningful sticker demonstrates a person has completed their civic duty.

Next year, that simple design will have a different look, at least for elections in Idaho. Next year, the “I Voted” sticker will demonstrate a special meaning regarding women’s rights.

The nineteenth amendment was ratified on Aug. 18, 1920. Next year marks 100 years of women’s suffrage. In order to commemorate this, the Idaho Association of County Recorders and Clerks and Idaho Women 100 are sponsoring a sticker design contest.

The contest is to design a special edition of the “I Voted” sticker. The winning design will be given out during all elections in 2020 in Idaho, including national and local elections.

“We’re thrilled to have IACRC participate in the Idaho Women 100 campaign and create a centennial anniversary sticker,” said Amanda Visosky, Idaho Women in Leadership Program Director and Idaho Women 100 partner, in a news release. “It’s a wonderful way to commemorate the women’s suffrage movement and Idaho’s early role in the national suffrage movement. We appreciate that so many different organizations are collaborating to celebrate this momentous occasion.”
