As Northeast Governor, I hereby declare this polling place open.
This election is to fill ONE open Northeast Assembly seat. Pursuant to the Vacancy filling Act, this vote will last for three days.
Write-in votes are only counted for a candidate if he or she publicly declares a willingness to receive write-in votes before the polls close in the Candidate Declaration Thread or writes in his or her own name on the ballot to fill the vacancy. Otherwise, all write-in votes for that person shall be deemed void.
Ballots for Members of the Legislative Assembly are cast using PR-STV. Voters who wish to preference more than one candidate should allocate a first preference for a candidate by marking a [1] in the space provided by that candidate's name, and proceeding to number as many preferences as they desire by marking a [2], [3], etc for as many candidates as they so desire.
A vote is formal for so long as there are consecutively 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.
PLEASE NOTE, WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE VOTE SANCTITY ACT, EDITING A VOTE AT ANY TIME AFTER CASTING THE VOTE SHALL INVALIDATE THAT VOTE.
