Accessibility
Some voters are entitled to assistance in GA!
Applying for Your Vote-By-Mail Ballot
- If the voter is physically disabled or illiterate, an assistant may complete the application with the voter.
- A disabled or illiterate voter may receive assistance from anyone other than an employer, a union official, or a candidate (or relative or representative of the foregoing). The person providing assistance must sign the oath on the absentee ballot application.
- If a voter does not speak English, an English speaker can provide them with directions so long as the voter fills out the form themselves following those directions.
- A family member may apply on behalf of a voter (i.e., the voter does not have to be present and sign the application), if the voter is physically disabled or temporarily residing out of the county.
- “Family member” means mother, father, grandparent, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, spouse, son, daughter, niece, nephew, grandchild, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, mother-in-law, father-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law over the age of 18.
- If a family member is completing the application on behalf of a voter, the family member should complete and sign section 11 of the application and section 8 of the application should be left blank.
Completing Your Vote-By-Mail Ballot
- A voter may receive physical assistance marking their ballot if the voter is unable to read English or is physically disabled. If the voter received assistance marking the ballot, the assistant must sign the back of the envelope, too. If the voter cannot sign the envelope due to physical disability, the voter should make a mark in the signature field.
- Physically disabled voters are eligible to apply for absentee ballots for the full election cycle.
- The voter’s caregiver can return an absentee ballot if the voter has a physical disability.
Voting In Person
- Every voting location has equipment for voters with disabilities. Voters can get help voting if they are unable to sign their name, unable to see or mark the ballot, operate the voting equipment, or enter the voting booth without assistance. The voter can choose anyone to help them except their employer, their union representative, a candidate on the ballot or a relative of a candidate.
- Election Day: Between 9:30 am and 4:30 pm, each voter who is 75 years or older or who is disabled and requires assistance, may, after a request is made to a poll officer, vote immediately at the next available voting booth without having to wait in line.
- Voters who cannot read English can have someone assist them. The voter can choose anyone to help them except their employer, their union representative, a candidate on the ballot or a relative of a candidate.
