MoveOn, a progressive advocacy group, is partnering with Ben & Jerry’s co-founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield to raffle off free, limited-edition, autographed pints of Kamala’s Coconut Jubilee.
Following a kickoff event, MoveOn's Scoop the Vote Tour will include stops in more than 20 cities in battleground states. In addition to free ice cream and other freebies, the tour will feature elected officials, activists and other special guests. At each stop, MoveOn will help attendees make a plan to vote by Nov. 5 and show voters how they can help get their friends and family to vote.
MoveOn will also serve a variety of electorally themed ice cream flavors that include, “Unburdened by What has Vanilla Bean,” “Inauguration Celebration Birthday Cake,” “Fight For Our Rights Sorbet,” and “MoveOn Mobilizer Milk Chocolate.” They are also collaborating with local scoop shops along the tour.
“You can lick and say you care all you want, but if you’re not going for the big scoop — to get registered and vote — at the end of the day, all you’ve got is some drips down your shirt. Go big. Scoop the vote,” said Ben Cohen, co-founder of Ben & Jerry's.
According to USA Today, Cohen created the Harris-inspired ice cream flavor and is releasing it under the "Ben's Best" label, which is not affiliated with the Ben & Jerry's brand.
