In an effort to make voting a bit easier, LA Metro is offering free rides for Tuesday’s primary election.

Voters and commuters can ride for free on all buses, trains, bikes and micro-transit throughout Election Day.

Metro says free fares will be offered at free-flowing turnstiles at all train stations and buses will have signage indicating the free rides.

Cyclists can get a free 30-minute reservation through the LA Metro Bike Share Program by using the promo code 303524 online, in the Metro Bike Share app or at one of the bike share kiosks. The promo code can be redeemed multiple times throughout the day, Metro says.

Metro has also made an interactive map for cyclists that makes it easy to find ballot drop-off locations and in-person polling sites.

The Metro Micro service, which offers on-demand rides throughout many parts of the Los Angeles area where there are fewer public transit options, will also be offering free rides through a coupon code. When booking a ride online or in the app, you can use the code Primary24 for a free ride. You can also reserve a ride by calling Metro’s call center at 232-466-3876 and selecting option 5.

If you plan on voting early or dropping off your ballot sometime along your journey, LA Metro has secure vote-by-mail drop boxes at nine of its major transit centers. Ballots can be dropped off now, but will close for good at 8 p.m. Tuesday.

Ballot drop-off boxes can be found at the following Metro transit stations.

  • Union Station (East Portal) 
  • El Monte Bus Station J Line, many local bus lines (plaza area) 
  • Harbor Freeway Station C and J Lines (park and ride area)
