In Ulster County, students are being invited to leave their mark on local democracy—literally.
The “I Voted” Sticker Design Contest is now open to young artists between the ages of 9 and 18. The winning design will be printed on the official stickers handed out at polling sites across the county during the November 4th General Election.
Originally launched in 2020 by Ulster County Board of Elections Commissioner Ashley Torres, the contest was inspired by a simple yet powerful idea: make voting more engaging, especially for younger generations.
Radio Catskill’s J. Miguel Santiago Colón spoke to Torres, who reflected on the initiative’s impact. “It’s a fun, creative way to connect young people to government,” she said, highlighting how civic participation can begin well before the first ballot is cast.
The contest is more than just a competition—it’s a chance for students to be part of the democratic process and see their work celebrated by thousands of voters.
Submissions are open now. For full contest details, visit Ulster County Elections: Student Resources.
