[IABS-Talk] Public Hearing

[davant1958 at gmail.com]

Hello All:

I want to thank all of you who appeared at the public hearings on accessible
vote by mail for blind people. Your oral and written comments as well as
your support is important. I know a few tried to come in a little later
today but the hearings were over by 2:40 and the state did not leave it open
any further.

However, if you still want to make written comments, you have until tomorrow
to do so. Additionally, on November 16 at 10:00 AM the Elections Board
itself will be given the information gathered from both hearings. Ray and I
were told that our portion of the hearing would likely occur closer to noon.
So, given that this is over Zoom, you might want to tune into the hearing to
show support. You will not be able to comment but it might well show
interest.

Once again, our working group thanks all of you for helping with this issue.
