This missive comes to me from my client Leamon Abrams, Director of Government and Civic Affairs for Starbucks Coffee in Seattle:

Starbucks is offering voters a free tall brewed coffee on November 4, 2008, after they cast their ballots.  Starbucks announced the initiative with an exclusive 60-second ad during the final pre-election Saturday Night Live on NBC, Saturday, November 1.   You can see the ad on this YouTube channel. With all eyes, hearts and minds on this week’s U.S. election, we wanted to find a way to celebrate the occasion and highlight the significance of the moment. Voter participation is incredibly important to democracy. It is also a meaningful way for Starbucks to contribute on Election Day and support our customers who care about making a difference locally, nationally and globally. 
 
The early returns from our customers are positive and we hope to see the blog and media coverage continue.  Please spread the word and come join us on Tuesday.
