Hello Dana,
Can you please send me the zipcode of Denis OBrien? So I can mail my pay due?

The more of us that exercise our right to vote with an accessible system, the better it will be for all of us and future voters as well. The more voices that speak will help our requests to be heard. Here are phone numbers and email addresses for Jean, Fred and myself. We all would love to help anyone!

I notified you on Click or tap here to enter text., before the local election, that I needed an accommodation to vote and requested that an accessible voting system be available to use. When I got to my polling place, there was no accessible way for me to vote privately and independently. I am willing to share further details with you.

Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act establish specific protections and require that equal access is provided for people with disabilities, including the right to vote. Because I was denied an accessible means to vote, I plan to file an ADA complaint with the U.S. Department of Justice regarding this failure to make the local election accessible to voters with disabilities.
