Across the country on Election Day, everything from fast-food chains to restaurants and retailers are offering food freebies and discounts when customers vote or participate at the polls.
Check out the list of places to grab a snack or sip on other sweet food and drink related discounts on Nov. 3.
With late-night viewership anticipated on Election Night, the fast-food chain has a unique deal for one free slider from 9 p.m. to close at all locations nationwide on Tues., Nov. 3, with no purchase necessary.
This options include a Chicken Cheddar, Turkey Cheddar, Chicken Chipotle or BBQ Meatloaf sliders.
⠀ To support voter participation, the company has offered one free entree for all badged poll workers on Nov. 3, up to a $15 value at all locations in store.
Krispy Kreme announced Tuesday that anyone who visits a U.S. shop on Election Day can receive a free Original Glazed Doughnut, even without an "I Voted" sticker.
Dave Skena, chief marketing officer, said since some people won't have a sticker because they voted early or mailed in their ballot, that either way, "we’ve got you covered."
"With a shortage of these prized 'proof of voting' decals across the nation, Krispy Kreme is stepping up to help enable voters’ traditional freedom of expression," the doughnut chain said in a statement. "The brand will also make available 'I Voted' stickers to guests."
There is no proof of voting required for the free doughnut, it’s for everyone to celebrate Election Day.
Whether you go out to vote and need to grab a bite to go on the way home from the polls or mailed it in early and order in to watch the night's results, customers can get great food discounts from the popular food service platform from a handful of restaurants.
