Voter Registration Website Accessibility Testing Feedback Form

Ensuring Equal Access to Democracy Through Accessible Voter Registration

Every eligible citizen deserves barrier-free access to voter registration, yet many digital voter registration systems inadvertently exclude people with disabilities through accessibility barriers. This Voter Registration Website Accessibility Testing Feedback Form helps election officials, accessibility coordinators, and civic technology teams systematically collect reports about WCAG compliance issues and assistive technology compatibility problems.

Who Should Use This Template

This form template is designed for:

• Election officials and registrars managing voter registration websites and online portals
• State and county government accessibility coordinators ensuring compliance with Section 508 and ADA requirements
• Civic technology teams building and maintaining voter registration systems
• Accessibility testers and consultants conducting WCAG audits for government services
• Disability advocacy organizations working to improve electoral access
• Web development agencies contracted to build or remediate voter registration platforms

Streamlining Accessibility Feedback Collection

Traditional accessibility feedback often arrives through scattered channels—emails, phone calls, social media complaints—making it difficult to prioritize fixes and track remediation progress. This Paperform template centralizes all accessibility reports in one structured format, capturing:

• Specific WCAG 2.1 guideline violations (Level A, AA, or AAA)
• Assistive technology compatibility issues (screen readers, voice control, switch devices)
• Browser and operating system combinations where problems occur
• Detailed descriptions of barriers encountered
• Screenshots and screen recordings demonstrating issues
• Impact severity on voter registration completion

By standardizing how accessibility feedback is collected, your team can triage issues more effectively, identify patterns across multiple reports, and document compliance improvements for Section 508 and ADA requirements.

Key Features for Government Accessibility Programs

This template includes conditional logic that adapts based on the type of accessibility issue reported. When someone selects "Screen Reader Compatibility," they'll see follow-up questions about which screen reader they're using (JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, TalkBack) and specific navigation problems. When they report a WCAG violation, they can specify the exact success criterion and conformance level affected.

The form also collects context about the user's testing environment—operating system, browser, assistive technology version—essential details for reproducing and fixing reported issues. Optional file upload fields allow testers to submit screenshots, video recordings of the issue, or detailed audit reports.

How Paperform Improves Civic Accessibility Workflows

Paperform's flexibility makes it ideal for government accessibility initiatives:

• Conditional logic shows relevant follow-up questions based on issue type, reducing form fatigue while gathering comprehensive details
• File uploads let testers attach screenshots, recordings, and audit documentation directly to their report
• Integration with project management tools via Stepper connects reports directly to your remediation workflow in Jira, Asana, or Monday.com
• Email notifications alert your accessibility team immediately when high-severity issues are reported
• Custom success messages thank reporters and set expectations for remediation timelines

Since this form is built on Paperform, it's naturally more accessible than many government form builders. The platform follows modern web standards, works smoothly with screen readers, and provides keyboard navigation throughout—practicing what you're asking testers to evaluate.

Connecting Feedback to Remediation with Stepper

Once accessibility issues are reported, the real work begins: triaging, assigning, fixing, and validating. With Stepper (stepper.io), Paperform's AI-native workflow automation platform, you can automatically:

• Create tickets in your project management system with all reported details
• Route issues to the appropriate team based on severity or WCAG category
• Send confirmation emails to reporters with ticket numbers and expected timelines
• Update internal dashboards tracking accessibility compliance metrics
• Trigger follow-up workflows when issues are marked as resolved

For example, when a Level A WCAG violation is reported—issues that create complete barriers to access—Stepper can immediately create a high-priority ticket, notify your development lead, and add the issue to your compliance tracking spreadsheet. When the fix is deployed, Stepper can automatically email the original reporter asking them to verify the remediation.
