are used in counting the ballots, the inspector must take the ballots, one by one, from the
box in which they have been deposited, at the same time reading aloud the names of the persons
voted for and the office for which such persons are voted for; the inspector must separately

receives them; if the elector has marked more names than there are persons to be elected to
an office, or if for any reason it is impossible to determine the elector's choice for any

the ballot so far as properly marked, nor shall any ballot be rejected for any technical error

law shall be construed so as to prevent any elector from...
