PORTAGE, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – The Portage city council introduced the winner of their “First Time Voter” sticker contest at this week’s meeting.
Alexia Faison is a 5th Grader at 12th Street Elementary. The contest was to design a sticker that can be handed out to first time voters on Election Day.
Faison’s sketch was chosen from several submissions by the Youth Advisory Council.
A statewide sticker contest was also conducted this year and was featured on an episode of HBO’s Last Week Tonight. John Oliver was quite delighted with the results, especially a sticker that featured a wolf roaring with his head back, and ripping off his shirt, proud that he had voted.
Faison’s sticker features a red eagle standing proudly on a field of red, white and blue.
