I voted today in the 2026 midterm election. This prayer followed.
Thank you God,
for all the people
some known to us all
some known to some of us
some known only to you
who labored and toiled,
marched and advocated,
sang and prayed,
wrote and called,
registered and registered others,
endured prison and suffered beatings,
bled and died,
for the right to vote
for the people of the United States.
Thank you, God,
for all the people
some known to us all
some known to some of us
some known only to you
who currently work tirelessly
to protect and preserve
the right to vote.
Thank you, God,
for all the people
some known to us all
some known to some of us
some known only to you
who work the elections and the polls
to ensure that
we exercise our right to vote
and that elections are free and fair
and all can participate.
Guide us, God,
to honor those who have gone before us
and those present with us
by voting.
We pray in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
Clearly the poll worker, who provided me with the sticker above after I voted and who I had never met before, had some sense of who I am. Like a cactus, I am prickly and difficult to eradicate.
