Lime Offers Free Election Day Rides In Hamburg, Germany

On February 23, 2020, Hamburg's citizens will be called upon to elect a new state parliament, called ‘Bürgschaft’. Lime is offering free rides in order to encourage as many Hamburg citizens as possible to vote in the election of the 22nd Hamburg State Parliament.

"We hope that with our campaign we can encourage Hamburg citizens to vote in one of the polling stations on February 23," says Jashar Seyfi, General Manager at Lime Germany. "Participation in the elections has never been as important. Every vote counts – all eligible voters can and may help shape the city of Hamburg. As an integral part of Hamburg city life, we can do our part to increase participation."
