Wheelchair access compliant with provisions of the FEC Standard
for DRE equipment |
The ELECTronic 1242 ® voting machine
is designed to provide convenience and ease of use for every voter, including
the physically challenged. The machine rotates forward, lowering the height
of the ballot by 12 inches, allowing those in wheelchairs to vote unassisted.
There are no protruding legs or appendages to interfere with easy access
and movement, or to become damaged whenstruck.
Senior citizens, who represent a major percentage of the voting population,
really appreciate our static ballot. It provides complete visibility of
the whole election roster, candidates and propositions, without scrolling
or page turning. |
