Disability Rights Wisconsin along with other community groups, such as the Wisconsin Council for the Blind & Visually Impaired, formed The Wisconsin Disability Vote Coalition (WDVC). The WDVC is a non-partisan effort to help ensure full participation in the entire electoral process of voters with disabilities, including registering to vote, casting a vote, and accessing polling places.
Voting already poses a challenge for people with disabilities, including those who are visually impaired. One advocate said of the election such voters are now facing an especially difficult decision: risk your health to vote in-person Tuesday or give up the right in an act of self-preservation.
