A drawing by middle school student Jane Hynous—one of nine new 'I Voted' sticker designs selected— has voters everywhere wishing they lived in Michigan.

Those little "I voted" stickers we all get at every election have been a tradition in our democracy for ages.

So when the state of Michigan held a contest to redesign their version of the stickers, the winners had to make a big impression. And boy have they.


The contest received tons of entries honoring cherished Michigan icons like automobiles, cherry blossoms and the Great Lakes.

But only one featured an "unhinged werewolf," as one X user put it, rending his garments and howling at the moon in the name of democracy. So obviously, that's what won. Was there really any other choice?

The sticker was designed by Jane Hynous, a student at Brownell Middle School in the Detroit suburb of Grosse Pointe Farms. And it has gone wildly viral because it is, in a word, hilarious.

The sticker features an American flag with the words "I voted" above it in the background. In the foreground is something straight out of a Marvel movie.

A werewolf with six-pack abs and veins popping out all over his arms tears his tank top to shreds with the unbridled power of democracy, or whatever, and it is downright epic.

You can totally see Hugh Jackman playing this democracy werewolf and frankly if Hollywood hasn't already reached out to him for the film adaptation of this sticker they're leaving money on the table.

Anyway, the design is one of nine winners that Michigan voting authorities will offer voters on election day, and as a Michigan resident, this writer will be immediately relocating if he receives one of the other eight designs, no offense.

Obviously, people online are loving the new sticker.








Regardless of who wins in November, the unhinged werewolf has won the internet's hearts, and that's the real victory.

Gavin Newsom Rips Pete Hegseth For Suggesting Press Is Only Reporting On U.S. Casualties To Make Trump Look Bad

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized by California Governor Gavin Newsom after Hegseth accused the press of only reporting on the negative effects of President Donald Trump's attacks on Iran.

Trump has said that the U.S. military was "knocking the crap out of Iran" but the "big wave" of attacks is still yet to come, and has not ruled out putting boots on the ground, saying the war is progressing "way ahead of schedule." Trump has urged Iranians to revolt, even as the regime reshuffles leadership following the death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and some of his associates.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
