Dear Candidates,

I am writing to inform you that a small number of electors voted by name of political party instead of name of candidate on the ballots prior to Candidate confirmation has been identified. While these ballots will be considered “spoiled” under GE 44th, my office has taken necessary steps to ensure these voters an opportunity to exercise their democratic rights to vote and their votes will be counted. As such, we have contacted all 23 voters from our log and invited them back to exercise “re-voting” to replace the original spoiled ballots. As of today, all 23 voters have re-voted as a result. Should you have any questions, feel free to contact me directly.

Best regards,

Philip Chan

Returning Officer
