Street artists leave 'Please Clean Up After Your Democracy' signs to encourage voting
Tuesday October 23, 2018. 11:39 PM , from BoingBoing
A street art collective known as ArtBitch, currently operating as VoteBitch, has been droplifting humorous pro-voting signs up in a bunch of public Bay Area locations.
Each sign shows a figure holding up a dog poop bag in one hand and a leash attached to the United States in the other, with the word 'VOTE' and the hashtag #itactuallymatters underneath it. The group has made the sign's art a free download on their site. You pick up your mess – why should the neighbors sit home watching football while you rock the whole civic duty thing? Tell folks to get with the program with this chipper yet irony-laden “Vote” sign. Vote! It does actually matter. photo by Rusty Blazenhoff (VoteBitch tipped me off on a few of the locations so I could photograph the signs. The lead image was captured at the bus stop on Webster Street near the corner of Atlantic Avenue in Alameda.)
