2024 - Honorable Mention for Distinguished Voter Education and Communications Initiatives

Carson City, the capital of Nevada, is home to over 41,000 active registered voters. To inspire excitement around voting, the city launched a new initiative during the 2024 general election: the I Voted Success Photo Booth. This program encouraged voters to take photos with their I Voted stickers alongside family members and loved ones, celebrating their civic participation. The photo booth allowed participants to receive their photos via text or email, making it easy for them to share their experience on social media. Many voters noted the minimal wait times, allowing them to leave the polling location with a smile, carrying a cherished memory they could share with family, friends, and neighbors. For first-time voters, it provided a lasting record of their significant moment.
