• Alternate Format Ballots Video

This video introduces and explains the Alternate Format Ballot (AFB) and the Accessible Computer Station (ACS). The AFB is a new voting tool that is available to persons with disabilities. The AFB allows voters with disabilities to vote privately and independently at home if they have, or have access to, a computer with a web browser and a printer. Voters that do not have the necessary equipment at home can access the AFB using an ACS provided by the County elections office. The video helps explain what the AFB is, how to request it, how it provides new accessibility to voting. It also explains the ACS, some of the equipment used to assist the voter, and a general description of how to vote using the ACS and the AFB.
