The Pistons are looking to make it easier for Detroit residents to vote — and their employees.
On Wednesday, the team announced a new partnership with the Michigan Secretary of State’s office to promote voter awareness and participation in the upcoming August primary election and November general elections.
Among the initiatives is a company-wide paid day off for the Aug. 4 primary and Nov. 3 general elections, which will make it easier for team employees to vote at their local polling places, as well as volunteer as election workers and advocate for others to vote.
