1. Before marking the accompanying ballot paper the voter must produce—

(i) The ballot paper showing the number thereon ;

(ii) This paper ; and

(iii) The envelope in which he has received the ballot paper ;

to some person to whom the voter is known, who will witness the declaration of identity (see other side).

ISB SI

2. The voter must sign the declaration of identity in the presence of the witness.

ISB SI

3. In order to vote, the voter must place the figure 1 in the space on the right-hand side of the ballot paper opposite to the name of the candidate for whom he votes ; that is to say, the candidate he likes best. If the voter does not place the figure 1 on his ballot paper or places the figure 1 opposite to more than one name, or places the figure 1 and some other figure opposite to the same name or place any mark on the paper by which he may afterwards be identified, his ballot paper will be void and will not be counted. The ballot paper must not be marked with a cross. The voter should not allow any person to see how he has voted.

The voter need not place the figure 2 opposite the name of the candidate for whom he does not wish to vote, but the fact of his doing so will not render his ballot paper void if it is otherwise properly marked.

ISB SI

4. Immediately after voting the voter must place the marked ballot paper in the enclosed small envelope on which are printed the words " Ballot paper envelope," and fasten it up. He must then place the ballot paper envelope, together with this paper, in the other larger enclosed envelope, addressed to the Returning Officer, and despatch the same by post without delay. Unless an elector returns his ballot paper at once, it may be too late to be counted.

ISB SI

5. if a voter receives more than one ballot paper, he must remember that he can vote only once.
