What's the story?
- As we head to the polls this November 6th for one of the most divisive midterms in history, there’s something even Antifas and Trumpicans can agree on: Americans like pizza and hate waiting in lines.
- Enter Pizza to the Polls, a non-partisan, pro-parmesan organization that delivers hot pies to crowded voting stations.
- “Americans are hungry for democracy and are turning out in record numbers to vote. But that means long lines and sometimes empty stomachs, which might discourage these brave patriots from performing their civic duty,” the organization says.
“Fortunately Pizza to the Polls is here to deliver the one thing that pairs so perfectly with freedom: piping hot 'za. Send us reports of long lines and we'll send in the delicious reinforcements.”
- Noah Manger, one of the founders of Pizza to the Polls, told NPR that they use social media to confirm all pizzas are delivered to famished voters at actual polling locations.
- “We offer some sort of picture or report from social media to verify that there is in fact a long line or a crowd at the place. And when we do that, we then look up, verify the actual polling place, make sure it's a real place.”
- But once the pies are delivered, anyone at the polling station is welcome to dig in.
“Poll workers, volunteers, people waiting in line to vote, their kids - you name it,” Manger said.
- Donations to Pizza to the Polls – and requests for pies - can be made here.
