As Governor, I hereby declare this polling place open!
This is the Northeast regional polling booth for the April 20 - 27 Federal amendment ratification. In this polling place, Northeast citizens are voting on one federal amendment.
A vote will be counted so long as the voter that casts it is eligible to vote in this election and casts a formal ballot. A vote is formal so long as it contains numbered preferences with no duplicate numbers. A ballot containing Roman Numerals is not considered informal. A ballot in which candidates have been ranked a,b,c, etc is not considered informal so long as no letter has been repeated, and so long as a single candidate has been ranked a, for as long as the letters are consecutive with no duplicate letters. A ballot is formal if the CJO can determine the intent of the voter without interviewing that voter.
Votes for "NOTA" or "None of the Above" for any office are formal regardless of the preference assigned to it. Should a voter preference "NOTA" as well as other candidates, only his vote for "NOTA" will be counted.
This booth shall remain open until April 27th at 9:04:59 PM EST. Editing your ballot at any point after posting will result in disqualification of your vote. Voting outside of the time parameters will disqualify your ballot.
Clauses presently numbered as five and above in Section 2 of Article VIII shall be renumbered accordingly. [/quote]
