NEW YORK — Voters waiting to cast their ballots early in New York’s Brooklyn borough got a sweet reward for doing their civic duty on a rainy Thursday.
According to BuzzFeed and the Kansas City Star, actor Paul Rudd greeted voters lined up outside Barclay’s Center and gave them cookies from the bakery chain Milk Bar.
“I want to say thank you for coming out and voting and for doing your part,” Rudd, 51, tells a voter in a video tweeted by Guster drummer Brian Rosenworcel, the Star reported.
