Current vote counting process considerations

As we are currently receiving ballots back related to the current issues within our community, numerous ballots are being returned that are distinctly different than others. These ballots have a variety of alterations that go beyond what is necessary for the completed ballot to perform its intended function. Below is a quick survey asking whether you feel that a ballot that has been defaced in any way should be considered valid and counted or set aside. The results of this poll will be published, this is an honor system, so please don’t try to “LOAD” the data with multiple submissions. This information will be considered by the board as the final counts are completed and published.
