Two Wisconsin communities are being sued by the Justice Department for neglecting to provide voting equipment that is accessible to individuals with disabilities.
Madison, Wisconsin— The US Department of Justice is suing two small Wisconsin communities for the possession of voting machines that are inaccessible to individuals with impairments.
The department and Lawrence reached an agreement to resolve Lawrence’s complaint; however, the complaint against Thornapple remains unresolved. The lawsuits were submitted on September 20.
The allegations suggest that neither town had voting machines that could be accessible by the public, as mandated by federal law for the presidential primary on April 2. Furthermore, the Justice Department has reported that Thornapple’s voting system was unavailable during the primary on August 13.
The case asserts that the boards of both communities resolved in 2023 to cease employing the accessible voting equipment they had been employing.
The municipality is required to provide accessible voting machines at each polling location it manages for the upcoming federal elections, in accordance with the parameters of the agreement with Lawrence. Furthermore, the community is required to instruct its employees on the proper use of the apparatus.

Catholics and Jews advise against voting in the most recent voter loyalty test administered by Trump.
