Blind voters in California just won the right to vote in private

A federal court struck down a California rule that forced voters with print disabilities — people who are blind or cannot mark a paper ballot — to return their ballots in paper envelopes and 'through non-electronic means,' which often meant hiring someone else to help. Magistrate Judge Sallie Kim ruled the requirement violated state and federal law, writing that needing another person's help to vote by mail is 'antithetical to voting privately and secretly.' A similar rule recently fell in Wisconsin too.
