Free Coffee and Politics are Brewing at 7-Eleven

Grab a cup of joe and get a jump start on election season by unofficially casting your presidential vote at 7-Eleven.

How do you like your coffee—blue or red? 7-Eleven’s politically themed coffee cups are back and looking for patriotic coffee drinkers.

To participate in 7-Election, simply ‘vote’ by purchasing a blue cup in support of President Barack Obama or a red cup for Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney.

Visit your neighborhood 7-Eleven on Sept. 28 to vote for free and receive a large cup of coffee from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. Voting started on Sept. 6 and will end on Election Day, Nov. 6.

7-Election will track votes for an unofficial and unscientific poll. In the past three elections, 7-Eleven correctly predicted the presidential winner.

Santee is home to three in the chain of convenience stores, find the locations here.
