| Section : | 2.2.7 | Page no. : | | Line no.: | | Comment : | ALL ELIGIBLE VOTERS SHALL HAVE ACCESS TO THE VOTING PROCESS WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION.
A. I am pleased that the guidelines require the Voting System Vendor to have the necessary connections to their equipment for the voters that wish to bring their own personal assistive devices to the polling place. This will make the voter more comfortable and at ease with the voting equipment. While the Election Official may provide headphones or other equipment for the voters with disabilities, the voter will also have the opportunity to use equipment they are most familiar with.
SUGGESTION: I would encourage each County to have an extensive Voter Outreach Program in order to educate the voters properly, so that the voters will know that this service, as-well-as many other services, are available.
