Voting and Disability Access in Pierce County

(CC) and (ASL) Accessible

Accessible Voting Units (AVU)

Voters have the opportunity to mark their ballots privately and independently using assistive ballot marking devices. These devices have a variety of accessibility options including audio, large font, color contrast, touch screen input and tactile input to assist voters in marking a ballot.

This accessible equipment is available in the Pierce County Election Center during normal business hours, 18-days prior to every election. We encourage voters to plan their in-person visit early in that 18-day period to avoid the crowds.
