BATON ROUGE - As numerous voters take to social media to talk election day, they can't help but notice there's something missing from this year's midterms. That's because they didn't get a sticker.

Countless disappointed Louisianans whipped up a storm on social media after they walked out of the voting booth with no "I voted" sticker to affirm their election day participation. In 2016, voting stations in Louisiana distributed stickers featuring the state's famous "Blue Dog" to commemorate the presidential election.

But no such thing is happening this year.

Initially, voters feared that perhaps some sort of gaff in the election day planning caused the new batch of stickers to be waylaid. But the Secretary of State's Office later confirmed that the stickers were never part of the plan for this year's election, telling WBRZ the Blue Dog stickers were part of a one-time participation initiative for the 2016 election.

Those who haven't voted yet still have until 8 p.m. to get to the polls. Just don't expect a sticker to come with your ballot.
