In what is being billed as a “Nationwide Day of Action,” local organizers are encouraging people to join in an effort to promote early voting ahead of the Nov. 3 General Election.
Olympia Indivisible and Evergreen Resistance are hosting “No Kings: Vote Early” in Olympia in concert with hundreds of events across the United States.
The local event is scheduled to begin with a ballot march drop from Lions Park at 800 Wilson St. SE in Olympia to the Thurston County Atrium Building at 3000 Pacific Ave. in Olympia.
The march is scheduled to start at 9:45 a.m. with an anticipated arrival time of 10:30 a.m. for a ballot drop, and then subsequent remarks by Thurston County Auditor Mary Hall.
A sign-waving event is scheduled to follow at the Washington State Capitol Campus from noon to 2 p.m.
“The sign-waving event will include music, chanting, and tables to help voters get engaged, determine next steps, and figure out how to keep the momentum going in the weeks leading up to the (Nov. 3) General Election,” said Olympia Indivisible and Evergreen Resistance in an announcement about the event.
The local event is part of what national No Kings organizers say is going to be a big effort to protect elections against sabotage and turn out the largest early vote in history.
“Our elections are under attack. On October 17th we defend our rights,” said No Kings organizers in a message posted on their website. “We’re fueling the largest early vote in the history of our Republic. Because in America, power belongs to the people — not wannabe kings.”

Indivisible Project PAC is directly tied to George Soros' Open Society Foundations. Indivisible coordinated the "Hands Off" protests of 2025 and runs the nationwide "No Kings" movement. Unamerican as ever.

Our current king-want-to-be doesn't believe in climate change. Why? Because he and his rich friends want to make money off of running our planet and our health. We know he's wrong (as usual). Show up and vote and show the current administration what we think. NO KINGS!
And Olympia Indivisible is a GREAT organization working to truly make America Great (and Clean and Healthy) again. Unlike the current federal administration that is just trying to ruin our lives.

There is a 2nd March to the Polls starting at 11 am from Percival Landing, sponsored by Dr. Barber and Repairers of the Breach and the Fellowship of Reconciliation, and taking ballots to the Olympia City Hall. This will be a non-violent celebration of our freedom to vote and our free country.

The many who participate in this social event are doing so based on pure emotion, with no sense of reality because they don’t like the current president. There’s plenty to not like about him, but remember he was elected. We have an election process that prevents anyone from being a “king” for more than their term lasts. We have laws in place that are meant to protect the integrity of the election system, many of which are not being properly enforced, such as verification of citizenship. We have millions of illegals in our country, many who have bad intentions, that are being subsidized by taxpayer funded programs such as schools, health care, government jobs, housing subsidies, etc. and are imposing this cost directly on taxpayers. What really needs to happen is the removal of all the PAC money being funneled into these elections by the wealthy and all political parties. That’s what is really corrupting the elections.

I find it ironic that these folks are worried about “kings” in the white house (I don’t like what’s happening there, either). But what about what is happening in our own state?? We are being steamrolled with one party rule and between our governor, legislature, and supreme court, they are taking a lot of our rights away.
They are going against the will of the people with this income tax (unconstitutional, and being deceiving in the advertisements and the voter’s pamphlet); overturning the voters with regards to using natural gas; and the lists go on.
I try to be consistent in my criticisms. At least on the national level, there is a back and forth on who is in power; our state has been one party for over 40 years! Whenever that happens, it’s too much power. And that power corrupts.

WA votes left regardless, so the demonstration won't accomplish much. Have at it, make noise, have fun, but it would be better if you spent this time thinking of proposals for realistic policies to better the lives of Americans and improve our standing as the leader of the free world.

ThevirtualOne - Interesting that you complain about PAC monies when the current admin spent $20 million worth of taxpayer money on election ads. Highly illegal and unethical, but you give them a pass.
Or this one: "In September 2026, a campaign watchdog group filed a formal complaint with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) against President Trump after he publicly referred to the super PAC's multi-hundred-million-dollar fund as "my money that I control," arguing that federal law prohibits federal officeholders from directly controlling or directing spending for unlimited super PAC accounts" - And yet, you give them a pass.
We could talk about the billions of dollars in no-bid contracts being given out to Don Jr., Eric, and Jared Kushner, but you'll give them a pass too.
Trump reported $1.3 to $1.4 billion from crypto-related projects, including more than $550 million to $635 million from memecoins and World Liberty Financial token sales, all promoted through official government channels, but you give them a pass.
Trump also reported $2.2 billion in total revenue for his first year back in office during his second term, a dramatic spike from the roughly $622 million he reported in 2024. He has rejected past precedent by refusing to put his businesses into blind trusts. He gets a pass for that too, right?
You bought into the lie that immigrants are the problem, but they're just being scapegoated when the thievery is happening right in front of you, and you give them a pass.
This is why people are declaring No Kings.

THANK YOU, Cobra Commander
To add to your comments: how about Trump's support of Russian aggression and our loss of standing in world opinion, especially treatment of our friends and allies, e.g. Canada

60 years of Cold War didnt teach MAGA anything. Its insanely un-American to be cozying up to Russia, but it seems the cult of personality has deep control over the GOP. Reagan would not have nice things to say about this at all, but then again MAGA is all about shitting on legacy so...

Jfc guy, trump is actively trying to find ways to break our laws to keep himself in office. Imagine how you would feel if Joe Biden did this:
