Hello Everyone,

If you participated in the live presidential release on Thursday, you heard
President Riccobono say that Lyft is partnering with the Federation to
provide our members with rides to vote. From October 15 to November 3, we
are offering those who need assistance with transportation to the polls or
to drop off ballots by mail the opportunity to take advantage of this
offer. To use the promotion, you must sign up with Lyft, and you cannot use
the promotion in conjunction with any other discount. The value of the
promotion is $20. So, voters will receive a $20 credit for travel to and
from the polling place or ballot dropoff point. If the ride costs more than
$20, the difference will be charged to the payment method used for the
rider's Lyft account. If your trip to the polling place or ballot dropoff
location costs less than $20, you may use the remaining credit to help with
paying for your ride home. Remember that the code is good only for voting.

The promotion is only valid between October 15 and November 3, and anyone
who needs to avail themselves of this assistance should contact our office
during regular business hours. We will ask for a few pieces of information
in order to share the promotion with you.

The code we will provide is for your use only. You should not share it with
anyone else. If you know someone who needs a ride to the polls you should
have them call us directly for a code.

As a reminder, our business hours are from 9 AM to 5 PM, weekdays. We will
provide this discount on a first-come, first-served basis. Early voting
begins on October 13. So, if you plan to vote on that day, I would
encourage you to make contact with us a day or two in advance.

Whether or not you need this assistance, I urge you to go and vote or to
vote by mail as soon as possible. Make your vote count this year.

Norma Crosby, President
National Federation of the Blind of Texas
