| Section : | 2.4.3.3 | Page no. : | | Line no.: | | Comment : | 16. Vol. I, §2.4.3.3(f) says that DRE systems shall "prevent the voter from overvoting." Some voters might wish to overvote as a form of protest, such as occurred during Taiwan's recent
Presidential elections. Further, the ability to spoil one's ballot is almost certainly protected
speech under the 1st Amendment.
Voters should be allowed to overvote after receiving the warning appropriate to their jurisdiction (e.g., it voids the overvoted race, it voids the entire ballot, etc.) | |
