If you are blind, disabled or unable to read or write, you may be given assistance at the polls by a person of your choice as long as that person is not your employer or agent of your employer, or officer or agent of your union.

Every polling place is situated in a building which can be entered and exited by persons who are disabled or elderly. If you are disabled or elderly and the assigned polling place is inaccessible, the local board must provide alternative means for you to cast a ballot on Election Day. DRE machines will be available for the handicapped.

If you are blind, visually impaired, or disabled, you may apply for a braille or tactile mail ballot. You must be a registered voter in Rhode Island and submit an application for a mail ballot in addition to the request for a braille or tactile ballot for each election.

For more information, you can utilize the American Association of People With Disabilities (AAPD) resource.
