Ballot Examples for Handcounting Paper or Paper-based Ballots for Virginia Elections or Recounts

State Board of Elections Commonwealth of Virginia

This document is based on and considered part of the Standards for Recounts of Virginia Elections, originally promulgated August 20, 2001 (effective for elections held after that date), revised 5/14/02 (effective 7/1/02), revised 11/28/05 (effective immediately), and revised 6/26/07 (effective 7/1/07). These Standards must be used whenever paper or paper-based ballots are recounted manually. In addition, the revised version of the Standards states:
The State Board of Elections also directs that in the interest of uniformity whenever paper or paper-based ballots must be counted manually for whatever reason (outside of a recount), the local election officials shall use the accompanying Ballot Examples for Bandcounting Paper or Paper-based Ballots for Virginia Elections or Recounts as guidance for such handcounts.

The numbers below correspond to and quote directly from item 5(c) in the Standards for Recounts of Virginia Elections.
5(c) For any other ballot ballot which is to be counted manually, and can be counted manually the following guidelines shall be used in determining the voters intent.

(1) As used below, the target area of the official ballot is the square next to the candidates name on the paper ballot, the oval next to the candidates name on the Accu-Vote ballot, or the incomplete arrow next to the candidates name on the Optech ballot. The candidate area is the area between the lines separating candidate names, if the ballot includes such lines, or the area that is clearly closer to one candidates name than another. The candidate area includes the candidates name and party affiliation if listed, or I for any independent using that designation. These instructions only deal with marks that are under the office being recounted, except as provided in items 10 and 11. (2) These instructions assume that the recount is for a single-seat office. That is, the voter was only permitted to vote for one candidate for the office. For multi-seat offices, the ballot shall be counted pursuant to the guidelines below so long as the voter has not voted for more candidates for that office than he is allowed to vote (in which case no votes are to be counted for the office).

la

Page la revised effective July 1, 2007 to reflect elimination of references to punchcard ballots.

(3) Any ballot which is properly marked (as specified for the type of ballot) in the target area for one candidate only for the office, shall be designated as a vote for that candidate. Votes to be counted:
