Oregon elections officials are turning to iPads in a new attempt to make voting as easy and accessible as possible for disabled voters.
In a small pilot program playing out during the special primary election to replace former U.S. Rep. David Wu, about 12 voters have filled out their ballots on Apple’s touch-screen tablet.
As far as elections officials in Oregon can tell, it’s a first for any state.
“We’re really at the edge,” said Secretary of State Kate Brown. “We want to make voting as convenient as possible.”
