Election Day has finally crept up on us, forcing millions of Americans to wait in long poll lines, growling stomachs and all. Fortunately, a pizza-loving website has taken it upon themselves to serve hot pies to those casting their ballots for either candidate.

Pizza to the Polls is serving up hot ‘za in the name of pairing something delicious (that, hopefully, everyone enjoys) with freedom. As the site explains, ” Americans are hungry for democracy and are turning out in record numbers to vote. But that means long lines and sometimes empty stomachs, which might discourage these brave patriots from performing their civic duty. Fortunately Pizza to the Polls is here to deliver the one thing that pairs so perfectly with freedom: piping hot ‘za. Send us reports of long lines and we’ll send in the delicious reinforcements.”

The site works by calling on voters to send a social media notification from a long line. The voter includes their address where they can expect pizza. The program, which is not charity or partisan, also allows users to donate pizza to other long lines, where voters may be just as hungry as they are.

Pizza to the Polls has so far raised over $18,612, which went towards serving up almost 300 pizza pies in Miami, Cincinatti, Chicago and other cities across the country. And while we’re praising the Pizza Gods for this gift, we’re campaigning for Empanadas to the Polls for 2020.
