The National Federation of the Blind of Nevada has been fighting for accessible and private voting for the blind since 1952. With recent additions to our state statutes, every polling location in Nevada should have two accessible machines available, and have trained staff to know how to hook these machines up and make them work before they open their polls every morning. As blind advocates it’s important that we make sure these programs are in place and are available for the blind and print disabled Nevadans who want to fulfill their constitutional Right to vote for their elected officials.</span><div dir="ltr"><div class="WordSection1"><div><p class="MsoNormal">Although the NFB of Nevada maintains a bipartisan stance towards all elected officials and candidates we are very one-sided when it comes to accessible voting. If you have not voted yet in this Primary election, I respectfully request that you make a point of attending a physical polling location in the next 10 days or on Election Day and request to use the non-visual accessible voting machine to complete your ballot. I hope that this process is efficient and quickly completed. If not, I strongly encourage you to refuse to have an attendant or other person vote for you and demand that they call their county voting resources or Registrar of Voters to make sure the machine is immediately set up, made available for you to have vote privately with the accessible equipment that is required by Federal and State law.</p><p class="MsoNormal">It is important that we protect our right to vote privately and excessively and if you have trouble voting or hopefully no problems whatsoever, I encourage you to contact me so that I can keep track of any patterns and follow up on any problems. Nevada is one of the few states in the country where accessible private in-person voting as well as accessible and private absentee ballot marking and delivery systems (NVEase.gov) are both the law of the land and it is important that we make sure that it remains that way in reality.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns and especially let me know of your results of using the machine as well as the feedback provided by any poll workers or managers.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><i><br></i></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><i>Yours in the Movement,</i></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><i>Mark Tadder, </i></span><span style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); font-size: 17pt;">President </span></p></div><div dir="ltr" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">National Federation of the Blind of Nevada</span></div><div>775-225-6881</div><div>President@NFBNevada.org</div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size: 17pt; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Click </span><b style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> below to book an appointment with me</b></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div></div><div><a href="https://calendly.com/mtadder/office-hours" style="color: rgb(37, 37, 255); background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><font color="#ffffff">https://calendly.com/mtadder/office-hours </font></a><span style="font-size: 17pt; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">”</span><span style="font-size: 17pt; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Live the life you want”</span></div></div><div dir="ltr" style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br></div></div>
