Old Navy stores are making a significant donation to democracy.

The retailer announced on Tuesday that it will pay store employees for eight hours who serve as poll workers for the 2020 election. The company said employees “will also be eligible for compensation from their local jurisdiction.”

That means they get their salary from Old Navy and the small payment from the county for working the polls.  Holy cow, this is a great idea. Getting young people involved and paying them to do it is a double whammy. It not only helps us when we need it, it kickstarts interest in working again two years from now.

I’m skipping over to Old Navy online and buying a hat or something.

Now here’s the funny part.  There are naysayers.

Oh yeah, those Planned Parenthood people will throw microscopic embryos all over your ballot!  And I am not worried about the NRA, Mr. Woods. They won’t be allowed to bring their guns inside a polling location so they are not going to come help. They are afraid to leave home with an armory to protect them from those radical and violent Old Navy employees.

Thanks to Kary for the heads up.
