  1. Election Law
  2. Article 10. Voting By Members of Armed Forces

§ 10-116. Military ballots; determination of candidates thereon. The

state board of elections and the county boards of elections shall

determine, three days before the first day for distribution of military

ballots, the names of all candidates duly nominated for public office

and the amendments, referenda, propositions and questions to be voted

for on such ballots. If at a later date the nomination of any candidate

named on a military ballot is found invalid, the ballot shall still be

valid, but no vote cast for any such candidate on such ballot shall be

counted at the election. The failure of the county board of elections to

include the name of any candidate or any amendment, referendum,

proposition or question on the military ballot shall in no way affect

the validity of the election with respect to the office for which the

nomination was made or the validity of the military ballot as to any

other matter.
