Ok this is more disappointing than infuriating, but I’ve been voting for 26 years and just once I want the state or county to give me a frickin’ sticker.

That’s like asking for an elephant stamp for wiping your butt after going to the toilet.
Voting isn’t an accomplishment, it’s your duty and the reward is the society you live in.
So that’s why I’ve done it my entire adult life. I always wondered.
Disagree, as a society we should embrace rewarding good behavior with stickers. You don’t have to wear it or take it if you don’t want it.
What’s wrong with a little gamification to encourage civic responsibility?
It acts like a reminder to everyone else that voting is open and you should go do it
You’re just jealous you didn’t get the awesome stickers Michigan did this year.
I’m not eligible to vote in your country. In mine, voting is mandatory and there are no stickers, just democracy sausages to aid in the funding for local polling places like schools and community halls.

Okay, I think what I’ve learned today is that I now need both a sticker of a werewolf tearing its shirt off and screaming “I VOTED!” and a democracy sausage.
The world is such a delightful place sometimes.
