Vote-PAD Rep Will Be At County Board Meeting

According to Jef Hall's County Board Blog, a representative from Vote-PAD will be at the June 14th meeting. For unstated and unexplained reasons, Chairman David Albrecht would not place Vote-PAD on the agenda to demonstrate their equipment. How are supervisors supposed to make an informed judgement if they are not able to see all State Elections Board approved equipment demonstrated?

Some disability rights organizations protested the SEB's approval of the Vote-PAD, based in part on a report by Dr. Diane Cordry Golden. Vote-PAD responds to the report here.

Hall asks that citizens contact Chairman Albrecht and urge him to allow ALL vendors to have equal opportunity and access to the meeting:
