WHO WE ARE
We have the power and are claiming it together. No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings.
What began in 2025 as a single day of defiance has become a sustained national resistance to tyranny, across every community determined to defend democracy.
Now we shift our attention to the heart of Democracy โ the Vote.
October 17th is the first day of Early Voting in Washoe County, bringing people to the polls to Vote Early! No Kings: Vote Early will bring people together to learn about their voting options, make a plan to vote, and help ensure every eligible voter has the information they need to participate.

What Itโs About
For more than a year, millions of people have participated in No Kings events across the country. This event takes the next step by focusing on voter participation.
Our measure of success will be the largest voter turnout for Early Voting in the history of the country.
Our purpose is to let those who would try to compromise our ability to vote know that their illegal attempts will not be successful. We will assert our franchise in such numbers as to be undeniable.
