gives his name and any other facts required, and the clerk announces the name in a loud, clear voice. If the vote is not challenged, or if the challenge be decided in his favor, one of the ballot clerks then delivers to the voter the official ballot or set of official ballots folded in a proper manner for voting. The voter thereupon enters a booth alone, and there marks his ballot. He is not allowed to make any other mark upon the official ballot than a cross (×) mark with a pencil having black lead, or to write thereon the name of a person for whom he desires to vote.

The voter leaves the booth with his ballot folded, and proceeds straightway and offers it to the Inspector in charge of the ballot box. The Inspector announces the name of the voter and the printed number on the stub of the official ballot so delivered to him, and deposits the stub in one box and the ballot in another box. The voter then goes outside the guardrail. He is then marked upon the register as having voted.

Official ballots are delivered in such order that the numerical order of the numbers printed on the stubs of the ballots so delivered is the same as the order of the successive deliveries

than one ballot is given to the voter, on account of his having spoiled what was before delivered to him, all ballots so given bear the same number as did the spoiled ballots, which must be delivered back to the Inspector before new ones can be claimed.

Any voter declaring under oath his inability to read, or such physical disability as prevents his preparing his ballot, may be accompanied into the booth by a person whom he shall select for the purpose of assisting him to prepare his ballot.
