Deschutes County is getting students involved in the upcoming presidential election by holding an “I Voted” sticker design contest.
Students from kindergarten through 12th grade are encouraged to come up with a new design. The winners will have their stickers handed out during the 2024 presidential primary and general elections. They will also be featured in the voter pamphlet.
“That’s a way to engage youth and and get them thinking about voting and what it means to vote. And and then that pride that you have after you do participate in the process,” said Deschutes County Clerk Steve Dennison.
