Lime is proud to announce it will provide free rides to and from the polls on Election Day, October 15th, 2022, in all of its British Columbia markets via its global Lime to the Polls Program. Lime to the Polls is a multinational, continually expanding effort by Lime to reduce transportation barriers to voting such as cost and lack of car ownership. Riders will be able to use the promotional code BCVOTES2022 to receive two free rides up to 30 minutes on any Lime vehicle. This promotion will be available in Kelowna, North Vancouver, the District of North Vancouver, West Vancouver, and Richmond. Lime will let its riders know of the promo via social media, in-app messages, and email notifications in order to allow as many riders as possible to take advantage.
“Our goal is to help the people in the cities we serve by providing safe, affordable, and sustainable transportation options. At Lime we believe that transportation can also encourage democratic participation by making it easier for residents to get to and from their polling place. Our LIme to the Polls program has a track record of success here in Canada and in countries around the world and we look forward to continuing to work with the cities we serve to keep expanding the initiative. We hope to see as many BC residents as possible take advantage on Saturday,” said Chris Iuvancigh, General Manager, Lime Canada.
Lime first offered a Lime to the Polls promo code in the United States in 2018 and did so again in 2020. The program grew even bigger in 2020 so Lime expanded it to Canada for the 2021 federal elections, with thousands of riders taking advantage. Lime is proud to offer Lime to the Polls once more, this time for British Columbia municipal elections.
