iElect is built for elections. Elections include disabled voters, deaf voters, colour-blind voters, low-vision voters, and voters on entry-level Android devices with 2G connectivity. Any one of those failure modes is a failure of the product. Our target is WCAG 2.2 Level AA, with body-text contrast meeting AAA (7:1) across the dark-mode surface.

Commitments

  • Keyboard operable everywhere — no keyboard traps, visible focus ring, skip-link present.
  • Semantic landmarks, a single h1 per page, and heading hierarchy preserved throughout.
  • Screen-reader tested with VoiceOver (macOS, iOS), NVDA (Windows), and TalkBack (Android).
  • Colour is never the only carrier of meaning — every status is labelled.
  • Tap targets meet the 44×44 CSS pixel minimum on mobile.
  • prefers-reduced-motion fully respected.

Known limitations

  • Hausa, Yoruba, and Igbo translations are phased against the VESR multilingual roadmap.
  • Some partner-supplied logos have not yet been audited for dark-mode contrast; we add hairlines as interim.
