#pollperks campaign launched to help local businesses and get out the vote
AUSTIN, Texas - The bipartisan campaign #pollperks is aimed at getting Central Texans to the polls while also helping local businesses in Austin and San Antonio. Voters can show off their "I Voted" stickers and get a discount, freebie, or a treat.
All participating businesses are voluntarily taking part to help their staff and the community at large during a particularly hard time for restaurants and shops, so #pollperks also asks Austinites and San Antoninians to show up and show out for their local businesses. Additionally, Austinites and San Antonians are encouraged to redeem only one offer.
