[blindlaw] accessible voting machines

Hi:

I don't know about California, but in Illinois they have them.  Although you 
need to ask for them.  My voting office had one set up, but they were honest 
and told me know one has ever used it or even practiced with it and I would 
be the first to ever use it.

After a bit of fumbling around with the wrist controls, the voting machine 
worked as advertised.  I did not need anyone's help and it was quite easy to 
use once I got started.

Are there any fully accessible voting machines for the blind?  By which I 
mean, show me the booth and wait outside while I cast my vote in private... 
If so, are there any such in the Bay Area of California?
