"So it didn’t actually take me long to come up with a design.

And I really wanted to incorporate the element of the mountain because that’s like something in New Hampshire is kind of like famous for like you see on our road signs. You see it like in a lot of places. So I just thought that something that would be something people would recognize and like know what that is and know it’s like from New Hampshire."

STORYLINE:
Whether scenic or slightly sinister (angry werewolf, anyone?), the designs on the front of “I Voted” stickers are attracting a lot of attention this year. But have you ever considered the back of your Election Day souvenir?
Two years ago, a New York county’s stickers featuring a wild-eyed crab-like creature created by a 14-year-old boy became an online sensation. This year, the smash hit – one of nine designs distributed in Michigan – depicts a werewolf shredding its shirt in front of an American flag. The 12-year-old designer declined an interview request, but other young artists described rewarding experiences.
In Milton, New Hampshire, 10-year-old Grace was treated like a celebrity when she visited the polls for the state’s presidential primary in January and town elections in March.
Like Grace, she was excited to see her stickers in action earlier this year.
