Vote. A message endorsed by the letters V, O, T, & E.
Our readÂerÂship is interÂnaÂtional, so we hope you’ll excuse an entry dedÂiÂcated to today’s elecÂtions in the United States. But we all know that the AmerÂiÂcan PresÂiÂdent has the power to change the world — for better or worse — so here are some reminders from a few of our most perÂsuaÂsive and comÂpelling comÂmuÂniÂcaÂtors. InciÂdenÂtally, the word “vote” — with its diagÂoÂnals, straights, and rounds — is a great way to demonÂstrate a typeface’s charÂacÂter while we push people to the polls. The images below are clickÂable and embedÂdÂaÂble, so feel free to post them on your webÂsite or blog today, whether you’re in JackÂsonville or Jakarta, because we all have a stake in this election.

I vote FFÂ Pitu.
Word. :)
ConÂgratÂuÂlaÂtions on your new President-​Elect, my dear AmerÂiÂcan friends.
I think a vote for an AmerÂiÂcan Design is approÂpriÂate here. One vote for the clasÂsic Avant Garde!
and conÂgrats!
P22 Bifur & BroadÂsheet for me. With Bifur, it was love at the first sight (i found him in a local bookÂshop http://​design.​sco​lar.​hu/​f​o​r​m​a​-​m​u​v​e​s​z​e​t​e​.html 2nd picÂture).
BroadÂsheet is a honest type and simply beauÂtiÂful.
Voting for presÂiÂdent was a no-​brainer.
But pickÂing just one of these typeÂfaces? Not so easy.
