Comment : | "When the provision of accessibility involves an alternative format for ballot presentation, then all the other information presented to voters in the case of non-disabled English-literate voters (including instructions, warnings, error and other messages, and ballot choices) shall also be presented in that alternative format." Comment: The requirement is confusing. Is the requirement stating that all information (ballot text and voter messages, alerts and errors) be presented in the same manner as the visual ballot? Or is it stating that all the information must be presented to the voter? Please clarify.
