DJs bring music, energy to Toledo-area polls

Election Day in the Toledo area had a lively soundtrack as DJs brought dance-floor favorites to polling locations across the region, including Miesha “DJ Lu” Ashford at Springfield High School. DJs at the Polls is a national nonpartisan initiative that aims to make Election Day a welcoming community celebration. “I hope they feel joy — I hope they feel welcome,” Ms. Ashford said. “I hope they feel like they’re part of something like a party, and that it makes them feel good.” As voters entered the Springfield High School polling site Tuesday, she played a variety of dance music, including “Get Silly” by V.I.C., “Electric Boogie” by Marcia Griffiths, “Outstanding” by the Gap Band, and music by Michael Jackson.
