If you need a ride to vote, The Rapid has you covered. This coming Election Day, Nov. 7, The Rapid is offering fare-free rides on their fixed-route buses to help people exercise their right to vote. You just need to tell us you are going to vote or returning home from voting.
Double-checking where you are registered is recommended to save you from unnecessary trips.
How to Check Where You Are Registered
- On Election Day, you have to vote in the precinct where you’re registered.
- Visit mi.gov/vote to find out where you vote.
- Under “Your voter information”, select “Where is my polling place?”
- Type in your details to look up your voter registration.
- Under “Your polling location”, the name and address of your precinct are shown.

- Now that you have your precinct address, you can plan your trip!
- Visit ridetherapid.org to get transit directions using our trip planner.
- When you board the bus, tell your driver “I am going to vote.”
- We’ll take you for a fare-free ride to cast your ballot.
