My fellow Americans: vote, you have that right!
Also: how do I get the word out to my disabled friends about rides to polling places? I was told that in my county the BOE has to provide rides to people who wish to vote in person and cannot access their polling place.
I want to ensure every.vote.is.cast.
@Bliss Thank you!

Mail-in/Absentee ballots are now federally mandated, as are ballot machines that can serve the needs of voters with different abilities.
I suggest you encourage those who may not have rides to polling places to request mail/absentee ballot online or by phone from their local Board of Elections (BoE). They can learn about the various election deadlines from the county BoE. The BoE doesnt provide rides to polls, however, local and state parties organize rides to polling sites.
