It’s election day and everyone’s looking for a way to get out to the polls. Ride sharing services Uber, Lyft, and ZipCar will help with discounted rides and new tools to help you find your polling place.


Uber has partnered with Google to create this handy tool to help you find your polling location. If you’ve never used Uber before, you can use the promo code VOTETODAY for $20 off your ride.

Meanwhile, Lyft will offer discounts to riders in select areas for 45% off of your ride to the polls (though getting a ride back will cost full price). Unfortunately, this isn’t a nationwide deal. Here are the areas where Lyft will be promoting the discount:

Atlanta, GA

Baltimore, MD

Boston, MA

Charlotte, NC

Chicago, IL

Dallas, TX

Denver, CO

Detroit, MI

Miami, FL

Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN

Nashville, TN

New Orleans, LA

New York City and New Jersey

Orange County, CA

Philadelphia, PA

Phoenix, AZ

Portland, OR

Raleigh, NC

San Diego, CA

Washington DC

Finally, Zipcar is making 7,000 of its short-term rental cars available for free for its members between 6PM and 10PM. If you’re voting earlier in the day, this might not help but for anyone heading to the polls after work who needs a ride, you can get it without being charged the hourly rate.
