LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa. – Hundreds of people in the area braved the cold to practice their First Amendment right on Saturday.<\/p>\n
No Kings protests popped up in several areas throughout the Lehigh Valley today, aiming to encourage eligible voters to make their voices heard in the November 3rd midterm election.<\/p>\n
People going to the event in Easton this morning were also encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to donate to Second Harvest Food Bank.<\/p>\n
However, the Lehigh Valley wasn’t the only area where these events were taking place.<\/p>\n
People all over the country, from DC to Florida to Texas, were getting out there this weekend.<\/p>\n
Instead of focusing solely on protests, they were urging people to vote in the midterms since typically only around 50% of eligible voters cast a ballot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LEHIGH VALLEY, Pa. – Hundreds of people in the area braved the cold to practice their First Amendment…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":308969,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[119,121,120,14287,5469,126555,3478,1823,1824],"class_list":["post-308968","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-allentown","tag-allentown","tag-allentown-headlines","tag-allentown-news","tag-midterm-election","tag-no-kings","tag-no-kings-rally","tag-rally","tag-vote","tag-voting"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308968","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=308968"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/308968\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/308969"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=308968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=308968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=308968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
