When you cast your vote on November 4, you'll leave the pollis with a piece of creativity crafted by a City School District of Albany student.
On Tuesday, the Albany County Legislature unveiled the 2025 winner of the "I Voted" sticker contest and it was Annie Morton, by a landslide!
The fifth grader at Montessori Magnet school earned 99% of the pulic votes in the third-annual contest run by the Legislature, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the League of Women Voters (LWV) of Albany County.
Morton’s design beautifully combined Nipper, a tulip bed and the city's iconic skyline into one patriotic motif.
Dozens of designs were submitted by students in grades K-12 from throughout Albany County and just ten, which included two other City School District of Albany students, were chosen as finalists. Last year, more than 60,000 stickers were distributed to Albany County voters on Election Day.
Congratulations Annie!
