	Ballot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the simplest elections, a ballot may be a simple scrap of paper on which each voter writes in the name of a candidate, but governmental elections use pre-printed to protect the secrecy of the votes.
		The ballot is manually counted by election officials after the polls have closed and may be recounted in the event of a dispute.
		The ballot is counted by a tabulating machine after the polls have closed and may be manually counted in the event of a dispute.

	Ballot
		Ballot really started as far back as 1905, when the brothers Edouard and Maurice Ballot started manufacturing marine engines and proprietary power units.
		In 1923, Ballot presented the ohc 2 LT with three bearing crankshaft; a sport version, the 2 LTS, was soon evolved with bigger valves.
		The Ballot HS 26, which had been launched at the Paris Show in 1930, was renamed Hispano "Junior".

	Compensation Ballot Measure (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		An Oregon judge ruled that ballot measure 7, which Oregon voters passed last November, is unconstitutional.
		The measure itself is a constitutional amendment requiring state or local governments to compensate property owners when regulations reduce the value of property.
		If the measure's supporters place another measure on the ballot that meets the judge's requirements, however, Oregon voters are likely to pass it.

	[338 NLRB No. 148] Daimler-Chrysler Corp., 7-RC-22246
		We thus speculate neither to divine the intent of a ballot that is not clear, nor to negate the intent of a ballot that is otherwise clear.
		Applying these principles, we have held a ballot must be voided where a voter has not registered a mark in either a “YES” or a “NO” square, or has not otherwise made his or her preference clear.
		The test of whether a ballot is to be counted or not is whether the ballot, considered as a whole, clearly expresses the voter’s intent.

		Ballot measures cause other problems by eliminating the deliberative process.25 They reduce decisions on issues, some of whi ch are complex, to simplistic yes or no resolutions.
		Further, the proliferation of these ballot measures has resulted in increased confusion as voters are confronted with a growing number of propositions on each ballot, some of which are difficult to understand.
		However, the importance of ballot measures as organizing and fundraising tools could make these types of measures popular in the future, particularly in areas where lesbians and gays are able to convince legislative bodies to not pass hostile legislation.

		As it is clearly shown on Ballot drawings, neither the 1919 nor the 1920 Ballot cars were Desmo, and there is a very high probability that the 1921 car was identical to the 1920 car.
		At Ballot, at the end of 1921, after the departure of Ernest Henry, a new chief engineer called Louis Germain (from Panhard-Levassor) was entrusted to design a more simple car and so cheaper touring car for mass production than the 2LS.
		The result was the Ballot 2LTS: same cylinder-bloc as the 2LT (so 4 cyl and 2 liter), with as well a single overhead camshaft, but with sporty hemispherical combustion chambers allowed by V-shape valves (internal angle: 45°) driven by the overhead camshaft via rockers.

	On campus, a ballot push - The Boston Globe
		With a John Kerry victory all but assured in Massachusetts, out-of-state students are arming themselves with absentee ballots to maximize their political clout.
		College students also are less likely to vote by absentee ballot than in person, he said.
		Some students opt to vote in their hometowns because of interest in local and congressional races, and because of a mistaken impression that registering in Massachusetts could affect their health insurance or automobile insurance, said Sarah Kelly, a member of the Wellesley political committee.

	SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Politics -- Ballot fatigue probably won't last past June
		Seventy initiatives have been approved for circulation for the ballot this November or are awaiting clearance by the Attorney General's Office, though a number are alternative versions of the same proposal.
		While the deadline for initiatives to qualify for the June ballot was Thursday, the Legislature has until March 10 to put propositions on the ballot.
		The governor is proposing five separate bond issues – for transportation, education, water, public safety and courts – totaling $25.2 billion for the ballot in 2006.

	Day v. City of Fontana
		Although plaintiff generally agrees that section 3333.4 may apply in actions against public entities, he maintains the statute is intended to inure solely to the benefit of individuals and entities whose automobile insurance policies are implicated in the lawsuit.
		The answer we discern is no. Nothing in the language of the initiative or in the ballot materials indicates that the electorate intended to forgo "balance" (ibid.) for public entities whose interests are placed directly at risk by motorists who fail to comply with the financial responsibility law.
		The ballot materials do not indicate that Proposition 213 intended to change the "system" with regard to a public entity' s liability for nuisance or dangerous conditions of property - or suggest that any such change is needed.

		The ballot pamphlet promises that rates would be based on driving record "first" rather than a driver’s residence, and that factor weight ordering would reduce good drivers’ premiums, must also be taken into account.
		State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company actuary Ina Becraft has summarized the process as follows: "[F]or each rating factor the loss and expense costs are determined for every category within that factor, and a relativity calculated based upon the relative cost to insure insureds within those categories.
		In view of the proponents’ ballot pamphlet representations about how the weight ordering mandate would operate, interpretations which reduce the premiums of good drivers, and raise those of bad drivers, throughout the state are to be favored over those that do not.

		Sixty percent of the measure's revenue would benefit automobile use, forty percent is dedicated to other forms of transportation, with rail receiving half of that.
		No matter how environmentally concerned those parents are, most of them depend on the automobile and 101 on a daily basis and are often just as frustrated by congestion as the commuter.
		They are willing to pay for a rail transit system, but they recognize that they will continue to depend on the car and the freeway for most of the trips required in their daily life.

	Online NewsHour: Debating Initiatives- May 17, 2000
		ANNE O'RYAN, American Automobile Association: I was appalled by the blatant disregard and arrogance of the legislature to kowtow to the big out-of-state special interests.
		It was the groups or the individuals who had money to put into it who could pay the people who collect the signatures, who could higher hire the lawyers to write these initiatives, and most of all, to hire the political consultants that run these very expensive campaigns now to pass or defeat these initiatives.
		It goes on the ballot exactly the way they want it, and then the campaign is designed to sell it exactly as they want it sold.

	Jodie's story: why a Michigan insurance reform referendum failed Campaigns & Elections - Find Articles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		In Michigan, ballot campaigns on no-fault automobile insurance are becoming as regular as Lee Iacocca's divorces.
		However, the ultimate defeat of the measure likewise demonstrated that, even when a campaign focuses on a hot-button issue like tort reform, ballot issue proponents must keep their questions simple in order to overcome what is commonly considered inherent advantage of a No vote.
		Public Law 143 of 1993, as passed by the legislature and eventually referred to the ballot as Proposal C, was a lighter version of 1992's Proposal D, which would have capped medical benefits at $250,000, with a 20 percent cut in premiums.

	FINANCING CALIFORNIA’S STATEWIDE BALLOT MEASURES:
		Committees active in connection with multiple ballot measures are identified in the final section of the report.
		However, many ballot measure committees, including those that raised the largest sums, cannot be included in the second section of the report because these committees were active in connection with multiple measures.
		If 1996 marks the beginning of a trend to finance ballot measure campaigns with committees that raise and spend huge sums to simultaneously support and oppose multiple propositions, the goal of informing the electorate about the role of money in these campaigns will continue to be thwarted.

		Here we may reasonably infer from the ballot arguments that a primary aim of Proposition 213 was to protect insured motorists and reduce automobile insurance rates.
		To the contrary, there is certainly a conceivable state of facts that can provide a rational basis for the distinction in treatment between those who comply with the law (their obligation to have automobile insurance or be financially responsible) and those who do not.
		We do not believe that plaintiff can properly argue that distinguishing between those who comply with their financial responsibilities and those who do not is not rationally related to restoring balance in the justice system, even if he would not have drawn the same distinction.

		Based on his experience with, and fondness for, bicycles, he used similar technology when he created an automobile with a four-stroke engine of his own design between the rear wheels.
		It was the first automobile entirely designed as such, not simply a motorized carriage, which is why Karl Benz is regarded by many as the inventor of the automobile.

		This measure is the latest in a series of ballot measures over the last several years to split appointment authority (which for nearly all City boards and commissions lies with the mayor in San Francisco’s “strong mayor” form of government) between the mayor and board of supervisors.
		In June of 1998, the ballot included Proposition A, a bond to rebuild the de Young in the Park, and a related but separate measure, Proposition J, placed on the ballot by a group of Supervisors in an attempt to solve the seemingly intractable dilemma.
		Proposition G (the 1999 measure) was put on the ballot by six Supervisors who were concerned that the public would be unable to access the institutions on their busiest day.

		Also, the revised ballot does not include changes that will be constructed as a part of the Cottage Hospital Modernization Project, as those have already been required as Conditions of Approval by the City of Santa Barbara Planning Commission.
		The accumulation of ballots individually received and those dropped off in two groups by advocates show that there is not 65% support for the neighborhood plan among the respondents.

		Though I have not been involved with the challenge, other than to wish the challengers well, I have privately expressed great frustration with the positions taken by the club, which seem to be in direct opposition to the interests of its membership.

		What this means in practice is that many victims who suffer injuries in automobile accidents hire attorneys to establish liability and collect a settlement from the guilty party.
		The initiative eliminates most automobile accident lawsuits in a tradeoff for relatively secure medical benefits and some guaranteed wage replacement.
