Very cool!

Uber and Lyft are offering free rides to the polls on election day. Uber's CEO Dara Khosrowshahi has announced that on November 6, 2018, the company will partner with #VoteTogether and Democracy Works to provide free rides to the polls.

Forget the fact that Uber is UBER LIBERAL for a moment.


A driver did kick people out of their car simply for being Republicans and saying so.


Why would we want more people that can't figure out and/or afford to get to the polling places on election day, or the early voting days, or mail in a ballot, to vote?


I would think that we would want this class of people to vote in fewer numbers, not more.

They don't scream out - Hey I'm a great decision maker -

to me.

Because in a real Democracy, we ALL have the right to vote. Not just those you deem acceptable.

Well, we aren't a democracy

No one's saying don't let them vote.

Now if only some states would stop deleting thousands of registered voters before the Election , then it would be totally great.

You are against removing the registrations of deceased people and those that have moved to a new district, city or state? Why?
