“A healthy, vibrant democracy depends on engaged citizens who vote. We’re happy to celebrate voters and our democracy by giving everyone a free Original Glazed doughnut on Election Day,” said Dave Skena, global chief brand officer for Krispy Kreme, in a company statement “So cast your vote and stop by; you deserve our sweet thanks.”
Krispy Kreme has offered freebies on Election Day in the past. In 2020, the company handed out free donuts and “I Voted” stickers to customers in honor of the presidential election.
