I Tried the link to the survey and got an "I'm sorry..."
response. I guess they don't really want our opinion?

About YourVoting Experiences !

Below is information about a consumer survey to be filled
out by People with Disabilities regarding their voting
experiences this year.

Voting Access Questionnaire

The election's around the corner. The National Council on
Disability (NCD), in collaboration with the National
Disability Rights Network
(NDRN) and EIN SOF Communications, Inc., wants to hear
about YOUR voting experiences during the upcoming 2012
General Election. Through a brief, open-ended
questionnaire, to be completed following your vote, NCD
and our partners will collect information about your
experiences, including any physical, attitudinal, or other
barriers you may have faced when attempting to exercise
your constitutional right to vote. We will issue a report
based on the findings of the questionnaire in early 2013.

A Government Accounting Office report found in 2008 that
just over a quarter of polling places, only 27 percent to
be exact, are fully accessible. The Federal Election
Commission reports that, in violation of state and federal
laws, more than 20,000 polling places across the nation
are inaccessible, depriving people with disabilities of
their fundamental right to vote.

NCD and its partners would like to learn how people with
disabilities fare in this election, four years later.

To take or share the questionnaire, please go to:
