Comment :  On behalf of the State of Arizona, I would respectfully offer the following additional comments for consideration.
 
Section 2.2.7.1.1.2

An Acc-VS shall provide accessibility to voters using their own personal assistive devices.

The EAC should clarify that any personal assistive device used must have a standard interface to the voting system. It should be clear that not each and every personal assistive device is expected to work with every voting system. Assistive devices with standard interfaces should be acceptable. It is important that they are standard interfaces that can be tested and verified and thus not compromise the integrity of the voting system.
