number of their votes in every posting, abstract and proclamation of the
results of the election.

3.  Every sample ballot or other
instruction to voters prescribed or approved by the Secretary of State shall
clearly explain that the voter may mark the choice of the line “None of these
candidates” only if the voter has not voted for any candidate for the office.
