How did I vote in the federal election on the weekend? The simple answer? I didn't. Why? Because blind people in Australia still can't vote without a middle man. someone between us and our ballots, filling them in for us.

πŸ—³οΈ Blind and vision impaired Australians still can’t vote independently β€” and that’s not just unfair, it’s undemocratic.
We deserve to vote privately, safely, and with dignity.
It’s time for real, accessible options β€” braille ballots, secure phone voting, equal rights.
✍️ I started a petition to demand change.
