If you have to work on election day, it’s at least a potentially nice way to get to a polling place conveniently and save some money on the normal ridesharing fare, which have been elevated since the pandemic. With Iowa apparently flipping to Kamala in a recent closely-watched poll and the race looking close in other states, make sure you get out and vote this Tuesday.
