Bike the Vote LA notes that, “Most elections in Los Angeles see a smaller voter turnout than there are people who bike in this great city. We are a force and we can make a change.” They actively encourage their over 2,000 followers to not just vote, but to get engaged in politics to effect change. There are similar Bike the Vote groups in other metropolitan cities in California, such as San Francisco and Sacramento. Other organizations are providing free bicycles and e-bikes to voters to ensure that transportation issues don’t prevent them from showing up at the polls. Lime is one such group; they provide shared bikes, e-bikes and e-scooters, and are partnering with Vote.org and I Am A Voter to share information and reminders via text messaging about election day updates and polling locations. Divvy, in Chicago, also provides voters access to their free bike share stations on election day via the Divvy app. They also work with Ballot Ready, a tool that provides non-partisan information about candidates and polling locations.Bike the Vote TodayLocal women, including Colleen Harshbarger will be biking to vote Early this election. Early voting starts October 21. Join them!
