TEXAS RIDES TO THE POLLSTexas buses, taxis and rideshare services, in more than 20 communities, are offering free or discounted rides to and from polling locations. They are working independently, and generously, towards this important community service.
Texas appears to be mobilizing more rides and transit companies than any other state in the country.
A powerful informal network of Texans are mobilizing to inspire our citizens to do their civic duty while honoring the soldiers who have sacrificed to protect this core freedom.
For any community to have free rides to the polls it may not take much more than a few folks to make the request to their local Bus, Taxi and Rideshare companies.
“This service benefits everyone in the community; especially those who might not have the means of transportation to go vote. We are investing in our voters and therefore investing in the community, We want to recognize and reward participants with a free ride to exercise their right to vote,” - CORPUS CHRISTI REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY, (CCTA)
FOR RIDERSPlan days ahead and double check info. Give yourself time if your poll is usually busy. Give yourself even more time if you have a special need.
Bring your voter registration card and a photo ID if you have one. If you don't have one, check a box on the form indicating why you don't and be given a ballot if you can identify yourself with non-photo identification that has to have your name and address on it. It's in this Handy Dandy Guide:

DISABILITY RIDESIf you are a person who requires transportation assistance to your polling place and you have a disability, it is encouraged for you to use your usual means of transportation. Most urban transit systems have their version of a paratransit system. Contact your local paratransit and make a reservation ahead of time for a ride to your polling site. If you are in a more rural setting, there are several agencies and transportation services in the below stated list that may be of assistance to you. Most of these services will cost a small fee or may be covered by Medicaid. It is encouraged to contact these companies and reserve a ride as well. If there are rideshares in your area (Uber, Lyft, etc.) this could be another transportation option, but it is strongly suggested to call ahead and see if they have accessible cars if that is something you require. Cab companies are required to be ADA compliant.

Also consider contacting your local independent living center to see if they have some resources to offer. You may also consider dialing 411 and asking the operator if there are transportation resources in your area.If you should experience any kind of discrimination when trying to get transportation assistance, or if someone will only offer you a ride if you vote for a particular candidate please contact the Disability Rights Texas Voter Hotline at 1-888-796-VOTE (8683).DISABILITY INFORMATION COURTESY OFMolly Broadway, LMSWTraining and Technical Specialist for Voting Rights, Disability Rights Texas |512.407.2725 direct | 512.454.4816 main | [email protected]
