Dozens of activists mobilized onto the Denny Farrell Pedestrian Bridge yesterday in order to promote early voting to drivers passing by below on the Henry Hudson Parkway. The action was part of a nationwide effort to boost turnout in the upcoming Midterm election. Election Day is on November 3rd, and Early Voting begins on October 24.

Amy Shaw and Ellen Spirer, co-leaders of the Hudson River Brigade, “took to the Denny Farrell Pedestrian Bridge, along with NO KINGS-VOTE EARLY participants, to provide social proof to the passing cars that these are not normal times and that their participation in our democracy, by way of their vote, is urgently necessary to preserve our republic,” according to a statement they provided to the Gazette.
