Some transit companies are trying to make it easier for voters to get to the polls for the midterm election tomorrow — offering rides for free or at a discount to encourage people to cast their ballots.

Lime — the short-term electronic bike and scooter rental company — said in a press release it would be providing riders with free trips to Bronx polls Tuesday. The offer includes two free rides on any Lime e-scooter of up to 30 minutes each way to and from the polls with the promotional code LIMETOTHEPOLLS2022.
