[Image description: Polling place sign, with arrow, outdoors on a brick walkway.]In twenty states, tomorrow is a presidential primary (and it's also Mardi Gras--so vote first, then party). How accessible is your polling place? The New York Times Polling Place Photo Project isn't primarily intended to document accessibility, but by collecting images of polling places this election year, they may inadvertently create such documentation. So take a picture tomorrow, or whenever you vote; and if you can, show any access features or barriers for disabled voters.
UPDATE 2/5: My polling place is a senior center, so the wheelchair access is fine.

This is a great idea. We have a polling station accessibility problem in the UK too. We need a way to document it better.
