When and where was that?

Last time I voted at my local
precinct, they had no such accessibility options available. I had to grab
2 polling place members (one demo, the other rep) and have one of them
mark the sheet while the other witnessed. they would read me the various
points on the ballot and I would indicate what i wanted marked. its
worked well, but took 2 people off the line.

so far, I have been unable to find a ballot template that would allow me
to mark the appropriate place on the ballot without assistance.

I may have to make a point with the election system in this state anyway.
their current ballots aren't really accessible to the blind (I usually do
the early voting mail in ballot).
Actually, they are. 
Every poling place (at least in Maricopa County) has at least one voting
machine that has headphones, has braille ballots, large-type,
touch-screen voting.....and have had for about 4 years or so, if memory
serves......I am not sure about the other Counties - you would have to
check with them.  I do, however, think that they are mandated, by
law, to provide them for those who need them.
