Question 3. however, must have not only a majority jthroughout the province, but also a majority of the municipalities, So that if the province passes it and the municipality of Carleton Place, for instance, and Almonte does nol pass it, it will apply to Carleton Place and nol to Al- mente and light beer will be sold in standard holels in Carle- fon Place and not in Almonte. 'Every voter shall vote once on each of the four questions, other- wiso, the ballot will be spoiled and will be rejected \ Ever voler may mark his ballot with an X under "yes" or "ne" as he or she pleases to any of the questions, No ballot shall be spoiled by virtue of the fact that some of the questions are answered "yes" and others "no." The only way a voter can spoil his ballot is answering both "yes" and "no" to a ques- tion, or by omitting to answer one of the questions. To vote "no" to the first question and "yes" to the other three means that while the voter doesn't want the 0.1.A. repealed, he wants it amended so as to allow the sale of beer in stan- dard hotels and government. agenc and spirituous liquor at agencies, all without prescrip- tions, but not the sale of beer or liquor over the bar. Of course it is self evident that it would be useless to vote yes" to question 1 to repeal the O.T.A, and then to vote "yes" on question 2 to amend it, 'be- cause if it is repealed it obvious- ly cannot be amended, Voting thus, however, while of no use, would not cause the ballot to be rejected. i 'It is urged by the enumerators that persons may' vote "yes" or "no" on any or all questions, as they please.
