San Antonio Gears Up for Record-Breaking Early Voting and Celebration of Democracy

San Antonio Buzzing with Election Excitement!

San Antonio is in full swing as early voting sees record-breaking numbers! That’s right folks, eager voters are lining up to cast their ballots ahead of the big day on November 5. This year, it’s not just about heading to the polls; it’s also about celebrating democracy and finding some tasty perks along the way!

Vote Early, Vote Often…but Not Too Often!

While it’s true that many San Antonians are casting their votes early, a whole lot more are saving the excitement for Election Day. For those who will be participating on November 5, be prepared for a bustling day filled with civic duty and lots of activity! It’s sure to be a busy day for voters and poll workers alike, but fear not—the businesses across the city are ready to help make the day just a bit sweeter!

Sticker Love: Businesses Show Support

In a move that keeps the positive energy flowing, local San Antonio businesses are embracing the election spirit with some enticing offers for anyone sporting an “I Voted” sticker. Although businesses can’t sway how you vote, many are setting up a ‘sticker swap’ where you can snag some delicious deals!

Let’s start with one of the Hill Country staples, Bakery Lorraine. They’re making your morning coffee a bit brighter by offering a free small house coffee when you flash that sticker. With three locations in town (plus one in the Doseum!), it’s super easy to grab your caffeine fix!

Indulge Your Sweet Tooth

As if coffee wasn’t enough to get your spirits up, why not treat yourself to some ice cream? The beloved Amy’s Ice Cream is dishing out a free topping or a unique {‘crush’n’} add-in for all you voters out there. Just swing by their location by the Quarry to claim your delicious treat!

And if donuts are more your style, good ol’ Krispy Kreme is giving away their iconic glazed donuts—no sticker needed! It’s a sweet way to satisfy your cravings while staying politically engaged.

Food for Thought After Voting

After you’ve done your part, head over to Shake Shack for some free fries with any purchase. Just use the code “ivoted” on the Shack app or show your sticker at the counter!

A Break from the News

Feeling overwhelmed? No worries! Dave and Buster’s is your go-to destination for a fun escape. They’re offering discounts on drinks and arcade games on November 5—perfect for those wanting to unplug from the news! Imagine all those games at half-priced and late night bites for just five bucks!

Even museums are getting in on the action. The Witte Museum is giving free general admission for Bexar County residents all day long! Why not take the family for a day of adventure and distraction in the natural world? Free hours run from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Tuesdays, making it a great way to celebrate!

Ride to the Polls and Back

And here’s great news for those needing a lift! VIA, our public transport system, is offering fare-free rides to polling locations throughout the city on November 5. Whether you’re taking the bus, VIA Link, or the VIAtrans paratransit service, you won’t have to worry about transportation costs while doing your part as a citizen!

If rideshare is more your style, Uber and Lyft have got some sweet deals as well for elections! Enjoy 25% off Uber Eats after 6 p.m., and Lyft is offering 50% off rides with the code VOTE24 on Election Day.

Get Set, San Antonio!

So San Antonio, as we gear up for Election Day, mark your calendars, grab your “I Voted” sticker, and take advantage of the fantastic offers around town. From delicious food to free museum visits, it’s time to make voting not just a responsibility, but a fun-filled day!
