In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past year, Tuesday is Election Day in the United States. And while everyone else was at the polls doing their civic duty, plenty of well known athletes were, too.
From Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald to Los Angeles Clippers guard Chris Paul, athletes took to social media to post their “I voted” stickers and encourage others to do the same. Some shared who they voted for, too.
Fitzgerald shared a photo of himself with his ballot.
Just got done casting my vote and I hope you all do the same today. Every vote counts!!! #Election2016 #iVoted pic.twitter.com/K8fC3e7CNE

Memphis Grizzlies guard Mike Conley got up bright and early to exercise his right.
