The Elections Division provides a number of services
to voters with disabilities including:
• State propositions and local measures (including
arguments and analyses) on tape, for the vision impaired
•
Information on Polling Place Accessibility. Each polling
place is surveyed to determine accessibility. Whether
or not your polling place is accessible is indicated on
the label found on the back cover of your sample ballot
by either the word “Yes” or the word “No”.
If your polling place is not accessible, you may contact
the Elections Division for information on curbside voting
or Vote By Mail voting.
• Written instructions (posted) and magnifier
(available from table) for the vision impaired.
• Assistance marking your Official Ballot: You
may have up to two people of your choice assist you;
however, you may not be assisted by your employer, union
representative nor an agent of your employer or union
representative.
• Curbside Voting: If your polling place is not
accessible you may vote in any area as close to the polling
place as possible. Someone must alert the Precinct Officers
for you, and they will bring the voting materials to you.
• 
Permanent
Vote By Mail Status: Any voter may now apply for Permanent
Vote By Mail status. This status provides that for each
election in which you are entitled to vote, you will be
sent a ballot automatically. However, failure to vote
in any statewide direct primary or general election will
revoke your status and you will need to reapply. For more
information, see Permanent
Vote By Mail Information.
