NAACP to offer free rides during primary

The NAACP Bradenton branch is offering voters living in Manatee County Commission District 2 — which includes downtown Bradenton and Palmetto — free rides to their polling locations on Tuesday.

The local primary elections on Aug. 30 include school board, county commission and state representative races. Those who may need a ride or those who want to volunteer to drive voters can call 941-201-4468 or email D2Votes@gmail.com.

This is a non-partisan effort, so rides are available to any registered voter in District 2.
