Paragraph 47
 

One change is that the total number of envelopes is not being reported and reconciled. The amended Code requests a total reconciliation of ballots only, whereas the envelopes are being packed for possible investigation later, without recording their numbers. This provides for a slightly simpler procedure during the count. The number of envelopes “of established specimen”, i.e. valid, found in the box is, however, still recorded and reconciled with the number of ballots in the box.
