It’s Election Day! It’s not a federal holiday, but businesses are still celebrating democracy in action with freebies, discounts and other promotions.

In most cases, you don’t need an “I Voted” sticker or other proof you cast a ballot, but it can help you get free food and other deals in some places. If you voted early or somewhere that didn’t have stickers, Krispy Kreme is giving away free “I Voted” stickers along with free doughnuts today.
