Under the CRPD, state parties have a positive obligation to take the necessary measures to guarantee persons with disabilities the possibility to exercise their right to vote. Thus, state parties of the CRPD must ensure that the whole electoral process is accessible to all persons with disabilities (see CRPD/C/GC/6, 2018). Despite efforts made to increase accessibility to voters with physical disabilities, in a number of CoE member states’ elections still a substantial proportion of polling stations has remained unsuitable for independent access by voters with disabilities and/or the layouts have not always been suitable for their requirements. Thus, the election management bodies and other relevant institutions should take further measures to improve the polling stations’ accessibility and suitability in order to allow voters with disabilities to vote independently. If necessary, assisted voting should be provided, according to the law (see below).
