Caution On Ballot
Things to remember about the ballot:
1. When you vote a straight party ticket, you must still
vote for one of the residen';ialp candidates if you wish to
cast a vote for presigent. A straight party vote doesn’t cast
a vote for that party’'s presidentiaf) candidate.
2. When you cast a straight party ticket, you are not
vot.ing in the nonpartisan election. You must still cast
specific votes for nonpartisan judicial candidates if you
wish to vote for those candidates.
3. When you cast a vote for president, that doesn’t mean
you are casting a straight party ticket. If you wish to cast
a straight rarty ticket in addition to voting for president,
you must look just below the listing of presidential can
didates and complete the arrow for the party of your choice.
4. You may vote for each candidate individually. You
do not have to cast a straight party ticket. You may split
your ballot in any way you wish.
5. You may write in the name of a candidate in the
spaces provided on the ballot.
