Be #ballotready. By looking up your ballot beforehand, you will get explanations that you can understand, rather than the complicated legal jargon that’ll be on your ballot. Remember local elections are just as important as presidential elections!

"It's important for people to understand that the deaf community is very diverse. And if we have access to the information through the Internet, but there is an issue with captioning and we cannot get the equivalent through ASL, how can we vote accordingly?" - Kriston @SignVote

Did you know that more than 50% of people with disabilities didn’t vote in 2018? It was mostly because voting information wasn’t accessible.
In this @SignVote video, we explain some of the rights the ADA guarantees for disabled voters.
