In 2016, there was a very special "I Voted" sticker with George Rodrigue's Blue Dog, and that sticker was a hit with voters.

This year, Secretary of State Kyle Ardoin says that Acadiana artist Tony Bernard has designed this year's sticker entitled "In Love With Louisiana".

When you go to vote early or to the polls on election day you will be able to get your Bernard sticker once you've voted.

Ardoin says,

"We're thrilled with this year's sticker, and even more excited to see pictures of voters across social media platforms on Election Day. Voting is an integral part of democracy, and the stickers will be visual representation of a vote cast."

The sticker was unveiled at a ceremony this morning at the Paul and Lulu Hilliard University Art Museum on UL's campus.

Bernard began a working relationship in 1993 with George Rodrigue, and he has been producing art for decades. He has been commissioned for a variety of projects over the years including the Louisiana ornament for the Christmas tree at the White House.
