It's actually been a controversy more than once in places where they have taken people from group homes to vote who clearly didn't possess the ability to understand what they were doing.

Where do you cross the line from exercising a right to someone using them to cast a vote the way the "helper" thinks they should vote? I don't know, but I would rather err on the side of not disenfranchising anyone.

now that I think about it.

They provide classes, transportation and guidance for an array of modern-life situations.

I got him registered for an absentee ballot. I save all the mailers I get and we go over them together. Then I read him the description in the voters phamplet and discuss how to vote. I showed him a sample ballot and how to fill out. He's voted in every election now. The last he looked over the mailers and voters into book and filled out his own ballot. A couple of the ones he needed more information and asked me how I was going to vote.
