The NY Times has this report on states grappling with the question of when, if ever, people with mental impairments should be disqualified from voting. This issue was addressed at a March symposium hosted by the ABA’s Commission on Law and Aging, the Borchard Foundation Center on Law and Aging, and McGeorge School of Law, entited “Facilitating Voting as People Age: Implications of Cognitive Impairment.” Contributions to the symposium, including one by Ruth Colker and me on absentee voting, will be published in the McGeorge Law Review.
