Detroit Disability Power (DDP) audited 261 polling locations, 167 of which were in the City of Detroit, for four assessment criteria for accessibility:
- An accessible parking area with a clear pathway into the building.
- An accessible entrance.
- A fully accessible voter assist terminal (VAT).
- An accessible booth for casting paper ballots privately.
The resulting report is not promising and leaves a lot of room for improvement. Just 12% of the 167 polling locations in Detroit were found to be fully accessible.
