[Tall-Corn] Voting experiences in the most recent election

[Scott Van Gorp]

Good Evening Federation Family:

We just had an election this week, and I hope a good number of people took
time to vote. We are still working on accessible voting legislation, and
there are a few questions the legislative committee has asked for responses
on so that we can get the most updated information.

Did anyone not vote because they had no accessible way to do so?  

Did anyone encounter poll workers who did not know how to operate the
machines? 

Did anyone run into poll workers who just didn't want to set up the
accessibility feature? 

 

If you have stories from recent election history, please get those to Bob
Ray at bray at nfbi.org <mailto:bray at nfbi.org> , or Mary McGee at
mmcatitude at gmail.com <mailto:mmcatitude at gmail.com>  as soon as you can. 

Thanks for any stories that are out there. Let's see if we can move the
needle on voting before the next election!
