Design of a Web-Based Voting Application

According to the U.S. Department of Defense, over 50,000 U.S. troops have been wounded during the recent and current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, many returning home with a range of conditions including traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, and polytrauma. These conditions can lead to impairments that cause difficulty with the voting process. Researchers at the Georgia Tech Research Institute have developed an accessible voting web application to serve as an exemplar of an accessible voting interface and to serve as a testbed to support research into ways to improve voting accessibility.
