What help is there for people with disabilities?
- Voters with print disabilities can apply for an accessible ballot that can be completed electronically, printed, and returned to your local clerk.
- All voters, including voters with disabilities, have access to a Voter Assist Terminal in all polling places. The Voter Assist Terminal allows the voter to mark their choices using the electronic interface and then print a ballot with those choices marked. The printed ballot is scanned into the tabulator machine in exactly the same fashion as all other ballots.
