26 Blank ballots at election of officers

No. 26. Blank Ballots At Election Of Officers

Decision: Upon the question as to what disposition should be made of a blank ballot found in the box at an election of officers? I decided that a blank piece of paper had no value, expressed no choice, and should be thrown out before the vote was declared.
