Below is an announcement for the blind and visually impaired community. Please
help desseminate this information.
Election officials from the counties shown below have purchased the same
accessible voting machines. On Saturday, June 24th these officials will have a
number of the machines set up and will demonstrate and train attendees on the
operation of these voting machines. These accessible machines will be used in
the August, 2006 elections.
The interest these elected officials are demonstrating by conducting this event
warrents a good turn out and will provide many of us our first look at the
machines. Plus, a bigger concern will b the preparation and training provided
to precinct managers and workers. This will give us an opportunity to emphasize
the importance of training for these workers who man the polls.
Hope to see you on June 24th.
