Some voters along the Front Range can take advantage of fare-free rides with the Regional Transportation District to vote in-person or at a ballot drop-off location.

Debra A. Johnson, the general manager and CEO of the RTD, and RTD Board Member Peggy Catlin, along with election officials, announced on Friday two no-fare travel days on RTD.

There will be no fare for users on Tuesday, Oct. 29, and also on Tuesday, Nov. 5. Election Day is Nov. 5, and Oct. 29 marks National Vote Early Day.

Colorado voters may find their nearest ballot drop box or voting center by visiting GoVoteColorado.gov, and can use RTD’s trip planner to find the best route to get there.
