As I turn to walk away she says to me, "You know you were supposed to give the ballot to me first so I could rip off part of it." I asked her if that meant the ballot was spoiled. She said she wasn't sure but that it probably was. I asked her to give me another ballot then, since she clearly had not told me what to do. She told me she couldn't do that. I started reaming this lady out because not only had she not told me that I needed to get this part ripped off, but she had also watched me walk up and place it in without saying anything. I was enraged.  |
My guess is they'll count your ballot. Unless one of the scrutineers is a ###### and objects, which isn't too likely. As long as it's clearly marked, and can't be identified as belonging to you, they're pretty willing to count every vote.
