Election Day Long Lines Are For—Starbucks!

Free Coffee at Starbucks

Earlier I blogged about how Starbucks is giving everyone—not just voters—a free tall cup of coffee today. Did the move give the chain's traffic a caffeine-like boost? You betcha!

The image in this post is from a Starbucks in Phoenix where it literally appears as if everyone leaving a nearby polling site was automatically stopping by for free coffee. John Klekamp from News 12 New Jersey took this photo and said the line before 9 am was "out the door." Wait three hours to vote, another two for free coffee.
