State of Illinois



Submitted on behalf of GBS and the State of Illinois (note the language is by Diane Felts, State of Illinois):
 
1.    The Election Summary Report will:
            a.    List "Votes Cast" rather than "Total Votes" since the totals reported on this report are the "Votes Cast."
            b.    Not list any write-ins except for Declare Write-in Candiates, if possible.
            c.    If possible, list the "Vote For."
2.    The Statement of "Votes Cast" will include at least the following:
            a.    The "Vote For"
            b.    "Ballots Counted"
            c.    "Votes Cast"
            d.    "Blank Ballot Total"
            e.    "Undervote Total"
            f.    "Overvote Total"
            g.     Candidates' Total
            h.    Declared Write-in Candidate Name(s) and Total(s)
3.    The Statement of Votes shall not report the percentages for overvotes, undervotes and blank times voted.
4.    The Statement of Votes shall not report write-in votes except for Declared Write-In Candidates.
5.     The Tabulator will not tabulate and report write-in votes nor segregate them into a separate ballot box bin since it cannot distinguish a valid from an invalid write-in vote.  The election judges will tally any write-in votes and complete the necessary tally sheets as prescribed by Election Law.
