Apple recently had contributed 5 iPad plates to Oregon, these iPad will use for labor disabled person to carry on voting, before disabled person use special-purpose notebook to vote.

 

Disabled voters will carry on voting by iPad, Five Oregon's counties will take lead to vote by using iPad. The staff will bring iPad and printer to park, sanatorium and community center to seek disabled person who can’t complete voting through paper registration.

 

So long as disabled person clicks on screen to choose candidate who they support, then may print paper. From technical angle, disabled voter completes voting not through iPad, because after clicking, also need print ballot, afterward also need throw ballot to ballot box.

 

Oregon spent 75,000 US dollars to develop this vote application, permit user to adjust typeface and color, this application procedure might read out candidate's name and slogan. Disabled person who has difficult in moving may also through blue tooth carrying on wireless connection to iPad to complete voting.

 

“It is very simple for me, this is a good way.” 75 year-old voter Lewis Crews expressed after using iPad to vote.

Before, Oregon provides voting through special edition notebook for disabled voter, but these notebooks need two big boxes, complete equipment will usually occupy a big space.
