Signs with the theme of the Vigil will be available for attendees to hold from

CFPA will provide battery-powered candles.

The purpose of the Vigil is to express solidarity in our opposition to any violence during Election Day or in the aftermath. There has been a surge of violence against election workers, causing many to resign or to need extra security precautions to do their important job of accurately counting the votes. The Vigil will also express opposition to large acts of violence against a peaceful transfer of power like that of January 6, 2021.

A few people have already asked how to support the Vigil if they are too far away to come in person. One option would be to quickly organize your own local Vigil. We could help with names of CFPA supporters in your area and including your Vigil in a final press release on Friday. Please email This email address is being protected from spambots.

Another alternative is to reply to this email with the message I'm with you in Spirit and your name(s). We'll read out your name(s) at the end of the Princeton Vigil.
