Facebook busts out ‘I Voted’ button, polling maps, democracy guilt trip

By

Interested in professing to the world that you voted? Ok, just your Facebook world. Yep, you can do that. Facebook will be reminding those of legal age that election day is tomorrow and will even have a link that will help you locate your nearest polling place. You can click on a “I voted” button to share that you did your civic duty. Now go forth and cast your vote!

Facebook - I voted

Possibly just in order to remind you that it knows your exact age (among other things), Facebook is posting reminders on the newsfeeds of all U.S. users age 18 or older that tomorrow is Election Day, and that they should go vote. Those aren’t just empty words: A link in the posting will take people to a Polling Place Locator, with maps. Those who did vote or enjoy lying about their participation in democracy can click an “I Voted” button.
