RTD services on Friday, Oct. 28, and Tuesday, Nov. 8, will be available at no cost to all users as the RTD and the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office recognize National Vote Early Day and General Election Day. The partnership encourages voter participation and turnout within RTD’s eight-county region and removed a cost barrier for people to take public transportation to cast their ballots, RTD officials said in a news release. “While data shows that mail ballot voting has significantly increased voter turnout in Colorado, providing systemwide zero fare transit access on general election days further reduces barriers to polling places,” said RTD General Manager and CEO Debra A.
