[Nfbmd] Public Demonstration of Accessible Voting Machines

[Blake, Lou Ann]

Hi Everyone,

The Maryland State Board of Elections is hosting a public demonstration of three accessible voting machines that may be used in Maryland elections starting in 2016. The demonstration will take place on Tuesday, September 16th from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at the University of Baltimore, Yale Gordon College of Arts and Sciences, 1415 Maryland Avenue, Baltimore. The demonstration is free and open to the public. Participants are encouraged to try out the accessible voting machines and provide comments. Additional information about the public demonstration is included in the attached flyer.

I encourage all Federationsts who are able to take part in this opportunity to provide feedback to state elections officials.

Lou Ann

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
