These Are the L.A. Taqueros Offering Free Tacos and More on Election Day

8:42 AM PST on November 2, 2020

[dropcap size=big]T[/dropcap]here are many good reasons to vote in this year’s presidential election:

For the restoration of our democracy.

For a decisive death to the tyrannical reign of a bootlegged despot.

And of course, for the tacos.

That’s right. A handful of our city’s finer taco shops are offering you deals and freebies when you vote this week and drop by with a sticker that proves it.

And since it’s our civic duty as North Americans who aren’t Canadians to vote tell you about tacos, we rounded up all the deals we could find for gratis tacos, discounts, and bonus items in L.A. on Election Day.

We’ve got deals from such venerable names in L.A. Taco-hood as Evil Cooks, La Monarca Bakery, Sara’s Market, and El Barrio Neighborhood Tacos.

Keep tuned to the story, too, as we plan to add more as we hear about them.

Until then, we bring you liberty, justice, and tacos for all.
