Preferential Voting Will be Used.

The section of the Class Constitution governing the elections of officers of the three lower classes is printed below for the benefit of the voters in the elections.

"Article III, Section 7.--The following system of preferential voting shall be used in all class elections:

On the ballot shall be printed alphabetically the names of all candidates nominated as provided for under Section 5 of Article III. A voter shall place a number, designating his order of preference, after the name of each nominee, and if any name is not marked on a ballot, that ballot shall be invalid. If any nominee shall receive a majority of first choices, he shall be declared elected; if no nominee receives such a majority, the second choices shall be added to the first and if any nominee shall have a majority of first and second choices added together, he shall be declared elected. Failing such a majority, the third choices, if there be three or more nominees, shall be added to the first and second and the nominee receiving a plurality on this count shall be declared elected. And if there be a tie, a new election shall be held unless there are more than three nominees, in which case the next series of choices shall be added, and so on successively, until a nominee receives a plurality or the number of series of choices shall have been exhausted, in which case a new election shall be held.

A majority shall be more than half of the number of ballots cast, in the case of a count of first choices and more than the whole number of ballots cast, in the case of adding first and second choices, and so on, invalid ballots being in all cases excluded."
