Comment :  A. THE HUMAN FACTORS CHALLENGE: USERS ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE VOTING SYSTEM

3. Defining The Accessibility Requirements  

SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS:

New Provision:

For auditory interfaces which present a list of options, the user should receive "a message when the end of the list is reached, indicating where they are. The message should state that "the end of the list has been reached and the next advance command will return to the beginning of the list."

This avoids frustrating and time-consuming scrolling up a long auditory list.
