Got a link to apply with?
I may have to make a point with the election system in this state
anyway. their current ballots aren't really accessible to the blind
(I usually do the early voting mail in ballot).
its that or I could make a standard template with holes in the right
spots and braille to indicate some of the fields (like yes or no or
choose one). I think the ballot would have to be a standard form as
well so that each section has the same entries regardless of who is
or isn't there.
Something to take up with the state elections board.

Elections, why not get inside and get paid for it, too?
The County needs poll workers - people who work the polls...her
you could
get a first-hand, up-close and personal look at the inner
workings of the
actual voting as it takes place. And yes, you get paid.
Then, both of the major political parties will want people to
work (yes,
you get paid by County) to participate in the "Hand count" -
this is where they reconcile the vote tally as per the machines
again
real people (you) hand counting each ballot.....
Both political parties also need volunteers (non-paid) to be
observers
INSIDE the Ballot Tabulation Center to watch the actual
machine-counting
of the ballots...this also allows you to go anywhere in that
building
(with a guide) EXCEPT behind the glass windows to the actual
small room
where the computers are located.......you can watch the process
of
handling of early ballots, provisional ballots, etc.....this is
non-paying work.
Jim, it seems, is far past this stage of the game, but other
interested
parties are welcome to email me off line for more details. I
just
think that voting is not to be tampered with, and the more you
know about
the process, the more (or less) confidence you should
gain........
