It is the time for blind people to participate elections independently. A special segment of the population, such as visually impaired voters has the right to vote and choose their representative; it is an essential part of democracy. Extant election systems do not adequately serve this goal. This paper focuses on blind people and aims to provide a new voting system to give blind and low vision voters more choices to participate the election process.
