Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fed. law requires polling places to be accessible to all eligible voters for fed. elections, incl. voters with disabilities. However, during the 2000 fed. election, only 16% of polling places had no potential impediments to access for people with disabilities. To address these issues, Congress enacted the Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA), which required each polling place to have an accessible voting system. This report examined: (1) the proportion of polling places during the 2008 federal election with features that might facilitate or impede access for voters with disabilities compared to findings from 2000; (2) actions states are taking to facilitate voting access; and (3) steps the Dept. of Justice has taken to enforce HAVA voting access provisions.

Book excerpt: Voting is fundamental to the U.S. democratic system and federal law provides broad protections for people with disabilities, including older voters. Many long-term care facility residents, who often have physical or cognitive impairments, vote by absentee or early ballot. Concerns have been raised about the extent to which states and localities are helping the increasing number of facility residents exercise their right to vote, especially those requiring voting assistance, who may be subject to undue influence or unauthorized completion of their ballot by facility staff or relatives. Given these concerns, this report identified the actions taken to facilitate and protect voting for long-term care facility residents at: (1) the state level; and (2) the local level.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fed. law generally requires polling places to be accessible to all eligible voters, incl. those with disabilities. In response, states and localities have implemented provisions and practices addressing the accessibility of polling places. However, during the 2000 fed. election, only 16% of polling places had no potential impediments to access for people with disabilities. Fed. law required polling places to have at least one voting system accessible for people with disabilities. This report determined: (1) the proportion of polling places that have features that might facilitate or impede access to voting for people with disabilities; and (2) the proportion of polling places that have features that might facilitate or impede private and independent voting for people with disabilities.
