The non-profit organization Vote Or Else plans to install
omelet stations in every precinct for the upcoming presidential election.
The group hopes the made-to-order egg sites will encourage
voter participation.
“People flock to free food,” said spokesperson, Chet
Farkins, “That’s why dive bars have baskets of Goldfish crackers.”
A recent study by the Tortein Institute suggested
complimentary meals would increase turnout by 8-10% at the polls. And possibly more if hot sauce was
available.
The egg stations will be bipartisan and available free of
charge to both Republican and Democrats.
The process will be kept simple.
After showing voter ID, the balloter will grab a ceramic
plate and point to a variety of ingredients.
“We’ll have the standard fare,” Farkins added, “mushrooms,
green peppers, onions, spinach, sausage, and bacon.”
Some critics believe the meals may slow the voting
process.
“That’s nonsense,” said Farkins, “if you’re in a hurry you
can vote straight vegetarian or meat lovers.”
Undecided diners may allow the chef to pick their fixings,
and hope the meal is to their liking.
Egg whites will be available for the Lean Party.
