2) can’t resist – if they are blind – does it matter? On a more serious note – red is often
difficult for the colorblind to
see.

Subject: State of Virginia Red Oval
questions
I received a call from State of Virginia
with the following questions regarding red ovals and I need assistance in
responding.
1.) Can we use red ovals? Yes the color of
red ink must be Pantone 032
2. ) Are there issues with the blind
population in regards to seeing the red
ovals?
3.) What is the acceptable width of the
line that makes up the red oval?
4.) Can I print all ovals in black and
then make a second pass at the ballot covering the black ovals with red
ink?
5.) Does anyone have the printer specs
for red ovals?
They would like a response by September
1, 2001 so that they can discuss at a state wide
meeting.
Thanks in advance for your
help.
