Voting Access Survey 2022
We are collecting information about as many polling locations as possible during this year's local elections to make sure voters (especially those of us with disabilities) are able to vote and fully be a part of all elections now and in the future. Across the US, disabled citizens vote 6% less than people who are non-disabled - that's enough to swing any recent presidential election! Part of that lower voter turnout is because of the lack of accommodations, inaccessible polling locations, and lack of poll worker training.
We want to find any potential problems at the polls, so we can work with the Detroit City Clerk (and others) to fix them right away. Please tell us about your voting experience, and we will look into the problems you write about. We are mostly focused on Detroit, but if you live in other parts of Michigan, we'd like to hear from you too.
Thank you for your help. Together we can make sure that voting is accessible and build disability power!
