<DIV><FONT size=5>In regards to the question about accessible voting, I am sure
we all want the easiest method from which to vote, but that is not always the
most safest way. When it comes to voting we must safeguard our privilege
to vote by maintaining a paper ballet with every electronic vote cast. You
can all already vote at home with absentee ballot and scan it to read
and mark your choice and print and return it before the designated time.
If you want to go into the polling place you can have your paper ballot filled
out in advance and take it in to put it in the box. Electronic voting must
always have a paper trail since we all know there is wide spread fraud. If
you want accommodations request them in advance in writing, such as an
interpreter. The electronic machine at the polls had difficulty
pronouncing the names and it was difficult to understand. Fortunately I
remembered my choices that I had chosen before I went into the booth. It
seems reasonable to request in advance a braille copy that has print on
it. But how would you answer it and how would they be able to count
it? The machine would have to have refreshable braille as well as voice
and mark a paper copy. </FONT></DIV>
