<p>By giving its employees paid time off to vote on Election Day this year, InterDigital is joining over 250 other technology companies, including Spotify, Autodesk and SurveyMonkey, in the <a href="http://takeoffelectionday.com/">TakeOffElectionDay</a> campaign. &nbsp;</p>
<p>&ldquo;We are proud to join this campaign as a way to support civic engagement and political participation by our employees,&rdquo; said Jannie K. Lau, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of InterDigital. &nbsp;</p>
<p>On Tuesday, November 8th, all of InterDigital&rsquo;s U.S. offices will open at 1:30 p.m. in order to allow employees ample time to vote. Moreover, all employees who bring in an &ldquo;I Voted&rdquo; sticker or other reasonable proof of voting that afternoon will be entered into a raffle for prizes. &nbsp;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I applaud this step. This is a big help for me since I have a long drive and it has always been a race in the evening to make it to the poll booth in time,&rdquo; commented Sudhir Pattar, Senior Staff Engineer. &nbsp;</p>
