Voters who do not hold a driver’s license, such as those who are blind, must print, sign and return the form to the AEC. These additional steps will require a person who is blind to seek assistance from a sighted person.
This requirement comes as a disappointment as testing showed that the AEC had taken significant care to ensure that the website is accessible to people with disabilities. Using a screen reader, a blind person can complete each form and access all content, making the printed form the only access barrier.
