with Disabilities Act of 1990 mandates the removal of physical barriers
and the development of a cooperative partnership between the disabled citizen
and the rest of the community. To this end, the Maricopa County Elections
Department wants to ensure the greatest accessibility possible in the voting
process. If you are a disabled citizen/voter and desire information on alternative
voting procedures and materials, accessibility of polling places or if you
have other concerns, please call 602/506-1511 for assistance. Our Telecommunication
Device for the Deaf (TDD) number is 602/506-2348. |

Where and How to Vote - No less that
11 days before each county, state, and federal election, sample ballots
are mailed by the Elections Department to every household that has a registered
voter. Your assigned polling place is printed above your name on the mailing
label. You may use your sample ballot as a guide when voting. On election
day go to your assigned voting site, announce your name and address, sign
your name in the register, receive your ballot, mark the ballot according
to the directions, and insert the ballot in the scan voting equipment. Good
Luck! |
