Voting Machines for People with Disabilities

Over the past several years, the city has equipped Prior Lake polls with machines that make it easier for people with disabilities to vote independently and more privately than in the past. 

If you need to use one of these special voting machines because you have a disability, let the election judges know on election day. They will be happy to give you a demonstration. 

More About the Machines: These special machines are better suited for people who have any type of disability that makes it difficult to mark a ballot. When using the machine, voters will have the option of listening to an audio version of the ballot through earphones or viewing the ballot on a screen that has options for reverse contrast and larger type. The audio description can be used alone or in conjunction with a screen version of the ballot. The vote will be recorded by touch screen, keypad or other adaptive method.
