Metro is offering free rides on all Metro buses, trains, Bike Share and Metro Micro on Election Day, Tuesday, November 8. The free rides will run from midnight to 11:59 p.m. on November 8.
In 2019, Metro’s Board of Directors voted to permanently offer free rides on federal and statewide election days to make it easier for voters get to the polls via public transit. By offering free rides on Election Day, Metro is doing its part to encourage voter turnout and make it easier for people to travel to and from local polling places.
Voters can safely and securely drop off their ballots at these Metro station Vote-by-Mail drop boxes:
Union Station (East Portal)
El Monte Bus Station J Line, many local bus lines (plaza area)
Harbor Freeway Station C and J Lines (park and ride area)
Harbor Gateway Transit Center J Line, many other local lines (transit plaza area)

Metro Bike Share will be offering free 30-minute rides for Election Day on November 8, 2022. To redeem your free rides, select 1-Ride at any kiosk, online or in the Metro Bike Share app and enter code 110822 to redeem. Ride for an additional $1.75 per 30 minutes after the first half hour. This code is only valid November 8, 2022 and can be used multiple times throughout the day. A credit or debit card is required. Electric Metro Bike fees are also waived.

Maybe off topic, but I am just wondering why Metro still has not widely announced the currently proposed upcoming fare changes and fare capping, in The Source.
Out of date system map, and out of date election date! 🙂
