Disaboom Digest of Problems for Disabled Voters


Here. (thnx 6oclockvintage.)


BTW: TwitterPatrol reported this incident, mentioned in the above article, earlier today:

"Florida - Anecdotal evidence on Twitter points to at least one instance of a voter with a disability being told they were not eligible to vote because they are disabled. Additionally Disaboom blogger KaraSwims was denied the right to a private voting area in Miami: "there were no lowered booths or even a table for me to use for voting. I asked a few officials but was told there was 'nothing they could do.' One offered me something stiffer than the book I brought to put on my lap to fill out the ballot, but the more important problem was privacy."
