What 15 million extra voters created from and uber/lyft look like per state (Vanity)
10/30/2018 | self

Posted on 10/30/2018 3:30:18 PM PDT by Democrats hate too much

Lyft (Valerie Jarrett on the board of directors) and Uber are providing free rides to the polls in targeted areas paid for through Soros's "Democracy Fund". They say 15 million people did not vote in 2016 due to transportation.

I believe this may be what Soros, Valerie Jarret, Obama and the establishment may have been counting on when they seemed so confident about things a year or so ago.

Imagine 957,000 extra voters in Florida through uber and lyft.

If Uber/Lyft successfully targets voters in more pro-democrat areas then this may wipe out the extra RNC voter lead and more.

Just to give you an idea what 15 million voters for each state looks like, I made the below chart.

Sounds like collusion to meddle in an election to me.

I’m tempted to take one of their free rides just to keep a leftist from using it during that hour.

Do you have to declare how you are going to vote (or at least your party affiliation) to get a ride?

This opens some interesting questions. If it’s party preferential, then it’s an in-kind contribution to the effort, and should fall under FEC rules.

-Lyft and Uber say they are only targeting undeserved areas. I think they are going to be selective.

"Do you have to declare how you are going to vote"

-It is partnered through Michelle Obama's "When We All Vote" that used the Lyft and Uber apps to register riders to vote. Actually, through that organization they should know how people registered if they did it through the app.

Let us hope that there are millions of #Walkaway Democrats who need a ride.

Easy solution - Republicans, just demand an uber/lyft ride to the polls.

Make Soros pay and keep drivers busy.

Targeting voters in WA state would be a worthless gesture. We are now a 100% mail in ballot state. There are no poll stations here anymore.

-Uber and Kyft say they are only doing it in selective areas (underserved areas).

Someone try to get them to pick you up in a MAGA hat. Sue at the nuclear level if they won’t.

Why wouldn't this be considered an in kind political contribution?

So, Lyft and Uber are going to pick up some Democrats. They have a lot of criminals. I’ll go ahead and predict there will be a story or two.....

Imagine 957,000 extra voters in Florida through uber and lyft.

Sorry, I can't imagine that because the logistics are impossible.

Granted, uber and lyft may be able to increase the turn out for the RATS. But the impact will not even be close to that stated.

If you’re incapable of getting yourself to a poll, you’re probably incapable of calling Uber or Lyft. It’s like the voter ID requirement being too much of burden. The downside of having a voting base that is barely functional.
