Hi all, Present day EVMs come with Braille numbers 1-16 embossed directly next to the button.
If there are more than 16 candidates, blind voters are reading the underlying embossed Braille through the Braille sticker overlaid on top. This causes confusion. There is as of now no other place where the sticker can be placed under current rules and space constraints. Also feedback revealed that blind voters were unsure with stickers and found the embossed EVM much easier to read. A workaround would be for the candidate lists to be numbered 1-16 instead of / in addition to original sighted list number. So candidate number 20 would be Machine 2, serial no 4รง What do you think ? Would this work? Feedback please!
