Your vote is your right! When you cast your vote for the November 5th Elections, you have the right to use an accessible voting machine. If you have a visible physical disability or possess a current mobility impairment identification card, you will be allowed to go to the front of the line to vote when you vote in person during early voting or on election day. If you are in line to vote, the poll must stay open until you do.
