This episode of the Nation's Blind Podcast focuses on the right of blind Americans to cast a secret, independent ballot, and what we can do when that right is compromised. The conversation covers the Help America Vote Act (HAVA), ways blind voters can prepare for Election Day, different accessible voting options, blind people as poll workers and election officials, and more. The episode also highlights the continuing advocacy and data collection efforts of the National Federation of the Blind, including the NFB's blind voter survey and hotline.
