Any voter who requires assistance to vote may be given assistance by a person of the voter’s choice, as long as the person who is helping is not the voter’s employer, an agent of the employer, or an agent of the voter’s union.
All polling place workers are trained in communicating with and assisting people who are blind and visually impaired, deaf and hard of hearing, and people with mobility, emotional and intellectual impairments. All polling places will have a Voter Assistance Official where voters can request special assistance. Voters at the polling places may request assistance in having information and the ballot read to them. Workers at all polling places are trained to assist voters who are blind to sign the poll book using a signature guide. Voters who are blind or have low vision will be offered assistance in getting around inside the polling place. People with mobility impairments will be offered to be taken to the head of long voter lines. Some of the polling places will have workers skilled in American Sign Language to serve as interpreters for voters who are deaf.
