Sec.  81.21  Counting of ballots.



    All duly cast ballots are to be counted. Even though it will not be 

possible to determine the intent of the voter regarding spoiled and 

mutilated ballots, they are to be counted for purposes of determining 

whether the required percentage of voters have cast their ballots in the 

election. Invalid ballots shall not be counted for purposes of 

determining the required percentage of votes cast.
