About
NO KINGS: VOTE EARLY - UPSTATE SC We've spent the last two years showing up in the streets. Now it's time to take that people power to the ballot box. Early voting in South Carolina begins Monday, Oct. 19 and runs through Oct. 31. Voting early has many benefits, including helping mitigate voter suppression efforts and other barriers that can make voting more difficult. So, on October 17, we're hitting the road, bringing No Kings: Vote Early to communities across the Upstate for a full day of voter visibility, education, and community engagement. If the goal is to get people informed and ready to vote, visibility matters. THE UPSTATE ROUTE CHOOSE YOUR STARTING POINT Anderson | 10:00 to 11:30 AM | Anderson County Courthouse | 100 S. Main St. OR Laurens | 9:30 to 10:30 AM | Lavonne Shopping Center parking lot | 102 Fleming Street Easley | 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM | Corner of E. Main St. & S. Pendleton St. | Downtown Lunch Break Greer | 2:30 to 4:00 PM | Corner of Trade St. & E. Poinsett St. | Downtown Simpsonville | 4:00 to 5:30 PM | Clock Tower Square | Corner of S. Main St. & W. Curtis St. | Downtown Greenville | 5:30 to 7:00 PM | Rally at Falls Park Falls Park | 601 S. Main St. | Downtown Laurens will be our vehicle decorating stop to turn your ride into a rolling reminder to vote early. The Anderson, Easley, Greer, and Simpsonville stops will be picket-style visibility actions on public sidewalks, putting the message where people can see it. We'll finish the day in Greenville with a community rally at Falls Park featuring topical speakers and music. Bring signs about early voting, making a voting plan, election information, or factual reminders about participating in our elections. Please skip "register to vote" signs. Voter registration ends October 4 at 11:59 PM, so hopefully everyone has visited SCVOTES.GOV to register and verify their registration before then! The goal is simple: every community we visit should know more than they did before we got there. WANT TO DO THE WHOLE ROUTE? Yes, 5 cities in one day is a LOT. We've mapped out a recommended travel schedule, including departure times and, because we're not monsters, a lunch break. You don't have to travel all day. Join us at the stop closest to you. One stop or 5 of your choice, help us take the message beyond Greenville and across the Upstate. 6 communities. One day. One message. No Kings. No Thrones. No Crowns. The people choose who represents them. Make your plan. Vote early. Spread the word. Hosted by: 50501 SC, Indivisible Upstate SC, C.A.R.E. 864, Community Heroes, Anderson County Democratic Party, and Laurens County Democratic Party **We decide who represents us.
