The App provides accessibility features for individuals who are blind or visually impaired to easily access the sample ballot prior to going to the Polls, which contains national, county and local level candidates seeking office, with extensions to their Biography, contact information and details regarding their platform. The current App has been developed for the iPhone and iPad. The Android App will be forthcoming. Democracy Live is seeking input on recommendations for accessibility enhancements. After downloading the "Live Ballot" App from the App Store, consider sending comments and recommendations to feedback at democracylive.com. Remember to spread the news.
