An accessible voter-verified paper ballot marking system will be available at the polls and EDR locations. This system is available to all electors. The Ballot Marking System is an accessible voting device enabling a voter with different disabilities – including visual impairment – to vote privately and independently. The voting device features a touchscreen display and includes alternatives such as audio, tactile keys, Jelly Bean button, and customizable displays to accommodate voters with a wide range of physical, sensory, cognitive and literacy abilities. This system accurately marks the same preprinted ballots given to sighted voters. The machine-marked ballots can then be run through an optical-scan tabulator in the same manner as all other voter-marked ballots.
