These pooches took to the polls. From 'I Voted' stickers to patriotic attire, here's what 8 dogs did on Election Day.
In Dixville Notch, N.H., the tiny township’s six registered voters gathered to cast their ballots shortly after midnight on Tuesday, with three for Vice President Kamala Harris and three for former President Donald Trump. Where the group might be unanimous, however, is in their choice for the night’s best dressed: the golden retriever who showed up to the Tillotson House at the Balsams Grand Resort wearing a U.S. flag tie.
The patriotic pup kicked off a trend on Election Day. She was just one of many dogs who had the privilege of showing up to the polls — and doing so in style. While there is a no-pet policy across all polling stations (except for service animals, according to the Americans With Disabilities Act), some pups still managed to make a pawsitive impact on the democratic process.
A corgi named Daisy looked happy to be by her owner’s side at a polling place in Cincinnati. She left with a sticker reading “Ohio Voted” on her harness.
A dog named Remy in North Hollywood, Calif., echoed Daisy’s look with an “I Voted” sticker.
One dog patiently waited outside a polling station in Milwaukee but looked disinterested in the line of voters.
A New York City dog watched voters while their owner filled out her ballot. It looks like they might have a future in election volunteering.
This service dog named Bentley doesn’t appear to be a first-timer at the polls.
Penny, a 3-year-old labradoodle in Pittsburgh, looks the part with an “I Voted” sticker on her forehead. She waited outside the polls but was given the souvenir by her owner’s son.
Meanwhile, this Massachusetts poodle might have mistaken the sticker for a treat.
