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, ending at 11:59PM on Monday, July4, 2011.
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.
