Accessibility Gaps Found at Virginia Polling Places During 2024 Election! dLCV has released a comprehensive report following the November 2024 General Election revealing accessibility shortcomings at polling locations across the Commonwealth. The report, based on surveys conducted by dLCV staff and volunteers at 484 polling sites in 59 cities and counties, found that while many locations met basic accessibility standards, significant barriers remain that threaten the voting rights of Virginians with disabilities. “While we are pleased that the majority of polling places did not have major barriers,” said Colleen Miller, Executive Director at dLCV, “it is unacceptable that fundamental issues—such as lack of curbside voting signage, inaccessible parking, or confusion about audio ballot equipment—continue to hinder full participation.” Read our full report and detailed findings now at https://www.dlcv.org/voting-report-2025 #Vote #VotingMatters #CripTheVote #DisabledVoters #VotingRights #Elections #DisabilityRights (fb)
