Today is Election Day throughout many towns and cities in NH.
The decisions made at the local level affect our schools, housing, transportation, public spaces, and the services people rely on every day. For many people with disabilities and their families, these decisions directly impact whether our communities are inclusive, accessible, and supportive.
That’s why voting matters.
Your voice matters. Your vote should be accessible.
In New Hampshire, voters can request the One4all Accessible Voting System at the polls. This system allows people to vote privately and independently using tools like a touchscreen, keyboard, or audio headset. It prints a paper ballot that is counted the same as every other vote.
Accessible voting helps ensure everyone can participate in shaping our communities.

Voters with disabilities also have important rights:
✔ Your vote is private
✔ You can bring someone to help you vote
✔ Polling places must be accessible
✔ You can use the One4all accessible voting system
✔ Having a guardian does not remove your right to vote
