Abstract
An improved ballot structure for use in connection with absentee balloting is disclosed which features removable adhesive-backed labels having indicia printed thereon of the names of candidates for particular offices. Voters detach these labels and paste them in spaces corresponding to the office for which they desire to vote. The number of spaces per office corresponds to the total number of candidates for which the voter is entitled to vote. The portion of the ballot containing the labels is detached by the voter and discarded and the portion containing the sticker selected by the voter is then supplied to election officials. In this way, improved election security is achieved in a simple, low cost and effective ballot structure. Preferably, the labels have bar coded representations of the candidates' names printed thereon, for ready tabulation by machine.
