RE: AVTS - Write-In text under the write-in line

I am currently programming a trial election for Mahoning County, Ohio.  Underneath their write-in lines for the Presidential race, they have the text For President under the first line, and For Vice President under the second line.  I know that currently on our AVTS software the Write-In text is defined under the TSText language folders.  I would like the software to bring in the text that we can define within Gems. 
 
 
There are two issues at play here.  One is to download the write-in text, which is planned.  The other is to handle multiple write-in text objects.  In GEMS you can define the write-in by-line text, but only one text object per "candidate".  Even if the race is multiple-spaced on paper, you only see the text on the first line.  You'll need to elaborate on how you would like to see multiple lines handled, bearing in mind that a single text object can have multiple lines, and commonly does for the english/spanish artwork.
Again this is for their November election.   

Unreasonable.
