Article 41
 

Assessment of Ballot Tickets


(1) Even those ballot tickets on which the names of individual candidates have been crossed out, changed or added shall be counted and allocated to individual political parties, movements and coalitions. All such modification shall, however, be disregarded. If a voter gives his/her preferential vote to more than 4 candidates, his/her ballot ticket shall be duly allocated to the relevant political party, movement or coalition but all preferential votes shall be disregarded.


(2) Those ballot tickets that do not correspond with the official form, have not been printed or duplicated by embassy, are torn or are not placed in an official envelope shall be regarded as void. Folded or damaged ballot tickets shall be regarded as valid as long as they include all relevant required information. If an envelope contains more than one ballot ticket, its content shall be regarded as void.


(3) The validity of ballot tickets shall be confirmed by the district election commission or special district election commission.
