29A.53.090 - Changes in voting devices and counting methods.

Changes in voting devices and counting methods. (Expires July 1, 2013.)

Participating state and local election officials may provide for voting directions and the design, processing, and tabulation of instant runoff voting ballots used in the pilot project authorized by RCW 29A.53.020. State and local actions must be consistent with the provisions of this chapter.

     Election officials should provide voters with a ballot that has a distinctive design, format, or layout for offices to which instant runoff voting applies. Ballot sections for contests that have fewer than three candidates for the same office, however, may differ from ballot sections for which the instant runoff voting method applies.
