Need a ride to the polls?
Over the years, Lyft has helped more than 3 million people exercise their right to vote by providing rides to the polls, and they have pledged to expland their program this year. This year they will:
- Provide discounted rides to the polls on Election Day
- Donate free or heavily discounted ride codes to nonprofit partners whose communities traditionally face barriers getting to the polls
In addition to rides, Lyft and their partners are making sure voters get registered to vote as well as educated about voting. They are also working to get more community college students voting; community college students tend to vote at a lower rate than students at 4-year schools.
