SB902 aims to remove barriers to voting for disabled voters in West Virginia.

SB902 seeks to amend voting procedures to ensure accessibility for disabled voters. It allows disabled voters to request a transfer of their registration to a handicap-accessible polling place up to 30 days before an election. If a transfer is not requested in time, disabled voters can cast a provisional ballot at a handicap-accessible location. The bill also mandates that the Secretary of State educate voters about identification requirements and develop a program to help eligible voters obtain valid identification.
