Ohio www.sos.state.oh.us/sos/upload/autoform/vrform_autoform.aspx?page=4763 TABLE 7 Ohio scorecard. Accessibility Issue Pass/Fail Notes Forms Fail No use of labels, fieldsets, or legends. Screen readers not notified of required fields. Completely inaccessible. Screen reader access Fail Unable to complete form. Semantic organization Fail Incorrect use of HTML headings. Skip navigation Fail In use, but in the incorrect location. Alt text Fail Improper use of alt text. Keyboard access Fail When tabbing through page, there is a keyboard trap at the beginning of the form. Color contrast Pass Text size and scaling Fail Default text size too small. Tab order Pass Issues • The skip navigation occurs after the primary navigation of the page. Skip navigation should be before all navigation. Furthermore, when clicking the skip navigation link, the focus should be the beginning of the main content. In this case, the focus is placed in front of the “Contact Us” link in the left column. • Improper use of HTML “alt” attribute. Issues found include use of redundant text for a grouping of images (see Figure 24) and use of alt text for “spacer” images used for layout (should use alt “” for layout images). • HTML headings should be used in the correct order (see Figure 25). • The default text size for some areas of the page is too small. The increase/ decrease font size feature on the top right of the page does not work for any of the navigation (see Figure 26). • Page design is extremely cluttered. 46 ACCESS DENIED: BARRIERS TO ONLINE VOTER REGISTRATION FOR CITIZENS WITH DISABILITIES
