Joe Biden, Donald Trump and policy experts already call it the ultimate choice of our lives.
While it may be too early to make this claim, many other people would probably agree that 2020 will be a polarizing year . . .
On the Arizona battlefield, leaders, artists, artists and small business owners are urging others to vote. Concert hall Crescent Ballroom closed the pandemic and developed an online voting guide. Phoenix artists Nyla Lee and La Morena also created a mural chalk on Roosevelt Row with the theme “Vote Early: For His Family”.
Journalists in the Republic of Arizona are attached to the responses of Arizona’s culinary, arts and entertainment scene on Election Day. Check back for updates of the day.
It’s a choice: Why do some Arizona restaurateurs take a political stance?
Instead of offering gifts or discounts for Election Day, celebrity chef Scott Conant closed his Scottsdale restaurant, The American, so he can vote.
Conant posted a message for his enthusiasts on his Instagram.
“Your Tuesday reminder to faint and vote,” reads in the message. Commentators in any of the political corridors thanked the leader for the retreat.
The American will be closed on Tuesday so his workers have time to move to the polls, according to an Instagram post at the restaurant.
Across the city, the elegant Italian restaurant The Parlor has posted an ad with a similar message. Phoenix Restaurant will be closed for lunch today, so you can vote, but they will reopen at four o’clock in the afternoon for dinner. The popular downtown Phoenix bar, Gracie’s Tax Bar, is also closed today, according to the bar’s Instagram account.

From Phoenix Electoral College, not far from her restaurant, Lori Hashimoto serves tonjiru, a slow-cooked red meat pallet soup with carrots, onions and miso. Hashimoto, co-owner of Hana Japanese Eatery, told The Republic that she was looking to cook anything that would give other people “a feeling of warmth and confusion inside. “
She is one of the few Phoenix subway restaurateurs involved in projects such as Chefs for the Polls and Feed the Polls to serve food to the electorate at polling stations.

“I think it’s a great occasion to take a position in our country and that food brings other people to the point of living no matter what. We need to show this unity and kindness,” Hashimoto told The Republic.
The leader said she planned to feed everyone, not just voters, at the polls at 17th Avenue and Camelback Road.

The bar’s owner, Mike Jacobs, “stunned” by the results of the 2016 election, expects another result this time.
For security reasons, his Phoenix bar, The Rock, will not hold a party on Election Day, but will continue to broadcast the effects on television. Jacob believes it is vital to pay close attention to the outcome, as Trump nominee Amy Coney Barrett argued. In the U. S. Supreme Court, concern has gripped the LGBTQ network about policies that could help change.
“With the oath of the new judge, we are worried about our marriage and will annul it,” Jacobs told The Republic.
Whether it’s a drag display or a party, gay bars in Phoenix’s Melrose LGBTQ community are preparing tactics for election night together. Stacy’s in Melrose will have drag queens performing a song about the election, while broadcasting the effects on television.
In Kobalt, owner Jeffrey Parales plans to stream the effects outdoors on the patio or on indoor television. Perales takes reserves to the capacity limit, which is limited to less than 50% occupancy.
