§ 13200 Ballot Printing Compliance

• •Ballots must follow the printing rules set out in the election chapter.
• •If a ballot is printed wrong, it can’t be handed out or counted.
• •Election officials have to check ballots for proper printing before using them.

A voter receives a paper ballot where the names of the candidates are missing or the layout is messed up.

Because the ballot wasn’t printed correctly, the election workers must throw it away and it won’t count toward the results.
