This is the ‘Go out to Vote’ initiative of the business organization, where as long as you have your finger inked and show your voter ID, you can have anything from a free drink to 50 percent discounts on food.

For example, in Starbucks and El Globo pastry shops they will give away a tall size coffee of the day, valid until 12:00 p.m. or while supplies last.
