No Kings! Voter Power! | I Am Florida
No Kings! Voter Power! — Lakeland — Freedom Park, 300 North Florida Avenue, Lakeland, FL — 2026-10-17 — We decide who represents us. We decide what comes next. For more than a year, millions of people have come together to reject the idea that power belongs to kings, billionaires, or politicians who believe they are above the people and the law. Now, we are taking the next step, turning people power into voter power. Unlike previous No Kings actions, No Kings: Vote Early is not purely a protest. Instead, on October 17th, it's a day of nonpartisan voter participation: we are bringing Lakeland and Polk County together to make a plan to vote early and ensure every eligible voter understands their options for how to vote and has the opportunity to make their voice heard. Because no one person gets to decide our leaders before voters do. On October 17th, join us in local events across the country as we get out the early vote and say it loud: no thrones, no crowns, no kings. Bring water, chairs, and a plan to vote! Candidates have been invited to attend so that you can meet them. *No Kings: Vo
