In light of what today is in America (election day), I thought it might be intriguing to see how far we’ve come – not in a political, economic, social, or fiscal way – but in a graphic design and creativity sort of way. Vintage campaign memorabilia tells an interesting story. Take a look, and happy Election Day!

Emily is a New Yorker trapped in a Floridian's body and loves every minute of her big city life. With a major in international business and years of being surrounded by ill-fitting suits and all the wrong shoes, she learned that the importance of fashion needs to be communicated to the world. To her, fashion is on the same level as charity work and feeding hungry children. Emily can be found frolicking the streets of her gayborhood enjoying the off-color humor of the gays.
