The goal of these rallies is to protest against Trump Administration policies, and this time, there will also be a focus on getting people to vote on Election Day.

"For over a year, millions of people have come together to send a clear message: in America, we have no kings. Power does not belong to billionaires, strongmen, or politicians who believe they are above accountability," organizers state on its website. "Power belongs to the people, but only if we use it."

Unlike past demonstrations centered on hand-drawn signs and chanting, this round—themed “No Kings: Vote Early,” emphasizes making voting plans, distributing informational flyers, sidewalk demonstrations, and car caravans.
