Voting Guide

Accessible Absentee Voting

Since October 2, 2020, the accessible absentee ballot option has been available on the online absentee ballot request page. This page is activated to receive ballot requests 3 months prior to each election. The Department of the Secretary of State developed this service in coordination with Maine's online service provider, InforME, with input from advocates at Disability Rights Maine. It is intended for voters with print disabilities, which may include vision impairment or blindness, physical dexterity limitations, learning disabilities or cognitive impairment, all of which prevent the individual from independently marking a paper ballot.
