A super PAC is raising thousands of dollars to make sure voters in Georgia's 6th Congressional District can vote in the June 20 runoff between Republican Karen Handel and Democrat Jon Ossoff.

My Ride to Vote's effort will pay for free rides to and from the polls.

Any 6th District voter can take advantage of the nonpartisan offer.
