Want to participate in the election in an artful way? Take a picture!

A picture speaks a 1,000 words, it records history and it can serve as evidence if needed. Why is this important? Because in the past voter suppression, polling place disarray and election fraud have severely impacted the outcomes of elections (just think back to 2000 for a recent example.) This year, you can help by doing what you've probably a lot of anyway, taking a picture!

Here's a few ways you can do it:
