____________

 

FORM OF DIRECTIONS FOR THE GUIDANCE OF AN ELECTOR IN VOTING WHICH

SHALL BE EXHIBITED OUTSIDE EVERY POLLING STATION.

 

The elector may vote for one candidate.

The elector has one vote.

The elector will go into the place reserved for balloting and will secretly mark with the symbol "X" in ink the ballot paper relating to the candidate of his choice in the booklet of ballot papers officially stamped or perforated or initialled handed to him immediately before going into such place, and will thereupon place the booklet in the ballot box.

The booklet as a whole must be placed in the box.

Only one ballot paper in the booklet shall be marked, and if the elector marks more than one ballot paper in the booklet or fails to mark any of the ballot papers, the ballot papers will be void and will not be counted.

If the elector places any mark on any ballot paper by which he may afterwards be identified, his ballot paper will be void and will not be counted.

If the elector inadvertently spoils a ballot paper, he can return the booklet to the presiding officer who will, if satisfied of such inadvertence, give him another booklet.
