One Vote = Tall Cup of Coffee

As a special promotion at all US stores this upcoming Tuesday, November 4, anyone who votes in the election will receive a complementary tall cup of brewed coffee that day.

I plan to vote after working an early morning shift that day.

I anticipate many, many coffee switches to keep up with the demand of free joe.

And who will I vote for? I will cast my ballot for the man who represents positivity and diversity, who will advocate for prosperity and inclusion, rather than the ugliness of fearmongering, racism, and division. Even though it is certain that my state's electoral votes will be gained by this person, there is an immense sense of pride I will feel when I enter that booth because my participation will be an extension of the hope (I hope) many Americans share for a better future.

Okay, enough of politics. Let's get back to coffee.
