SAMPLE INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO VOTE ON AN M‐100 PRECINCT COUNTER VOTING SYSTEM
The following is a diagram for the M100 Precinct Ballot Counter that will be at each polling place.
1. To vote, you must blacken the oval completely.
TO VOTE:
SAMPLE SECRETARY OF STATE (Vote for One)
John Doe Thomas Jefferson Jane Q Public
VOTE BOTH SIDES – CHECK BALLOT TO SEE IF THERE ARE ISSUES PRINTED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALLOT TO BE VOTED ON.
2. USE A #2 PENCIL OR BLACK INK TO MARK YOUR BALLOT. An Optical Scanner will count your ballot. If you use any other type of pen, it may not be counted correctly by the Scanner.
OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR BALLOT:
When marking your ballot you should NOT make an X or a check mark. You should NOT cross out, erase, or use correction fluid on the ballot and if you make an error, you should request a new ballot.
READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY! If you mark more candidates than you are allowed to mark for that position, it is considered an overvote. You may request a new ballot if you overvote in any race. If you do not correct your ballot, that race will not count because of the overvote; however, the remainder of your ballot will be counted.
After you mark the ballot, you will be directed to place the ballot in the M‐100 precinct counter, which will alert you to errors, if any, tabulate your choices and then deposit the ballot in the ballot box.
