<br>
Following the confusion about None of the Above option in the ballot,<br>
the matter was discussed at some length in the election-reform list<br>
and even legal advice sought, and consequently NCSG EC agreed that<br>
there shall be no explicit NotA choice in the ballot, but abstaining,<br>
that is voting for fewer candidates than there're available slots,<br>
will not invalidate the ballot.<br>
<br>
That is, the ballot will look somewhat like this:<br>
<br>
Chair:<br>
<br>
[ ] X<br>
[ ] Y<br>
[ ] Z<br>
<br>
Council:<br>
<br>
[ ] A<br>
[ ] B<br>
[ ] C<br>
[ ] D<br>
[ ] E<br>
[ ] F<br>
<br>
and you must mark at most one of the Chair candidates<br>
and at most four of the council candidates.<br>
<br>
<br>
You can find the discussion in two threads in election-reform list:<br>
