How might we design an accessible election experience for everyone?
Vapp is a voting app designed to be operated by the poll clerks to easily suggest the method of voting for people with disabilities. For instance, when a visually impaired voter needs to use his hearing sense to be guided, and is able to use his/her hands to touch control the app, another might be able to see the device but not use his/her hands. Vapp supports the right of everyone to vote self sufficiently, not needing to share own candidate information.
