§ NRS § 293B.085Several elective to same offices; effect of overvote

en · 422 chars · active
  A mechanical voting system must permit the
voter to vote for as many persons for an office as the voter is lawfully
entitled to vote for, but no more. If a voter casts more votes for an office
than the voter is lawfully entitled, the counting device or electronic computer
must be programmed so that those votes are not counted. The remainder of the
voter’s ballot must be counted if it is otherwise lawfully voted.
