With the recent Kuala Kubu Baharu state by-elections this past Saturday, also came stories of voters doing all they can to ensure they cast their ballot and exercise their democratic right. From being bedridden to having travel hundreds of kilometres, these stories are commonly reported during election seasons and while they seem inspirational, they can also contribute to the perception that processes and infrastructure don’t need to change to improve accessibility for people with disabilities - whether it’s to do with voting or any other aspect of social participation.
