Subject: [NFB-Conventions] Session on Advocacy, Empowerment, and Accessible Voting

Greetings:

 

The National Federation of the Blind has been a longtime advocate for accessible voting for the blind. Democracy Live, a company that develops and deploys accessible voting technology, has supported this effort in several states with its OmniBallot online voting system and its OmniBallot Tablet.
In my home state of Colorado, blind voters and those with print disabilities can use Democracy Live's OmniBallot system to mark and return their ballots from their own homes and offices using the hardware and software with which they are most familiar.

 

If you would like to learn more about the online voting with the OmniBallot system or the OmniBallot Tablet solution that Democracy Live has for accessible in-person voting,  then please attend the noon-time session on Monday, July 6 in Room 202. Prior to this session, a representative from Democracy Live will be staffing Table A8 in the Convention Exhibit Hall when the Exhibit Hall is open.

 

The right to cast a ballot that is truly secret and accessible to all is fundamental to our democracy. Come and learn about accessible options that enable the blind to exercise this right.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Curtis Chong
