Comment : | 55 I 6.8.3.4 40 "Other marking not related to ballot selection on the paper record shall be in English." change the wording on the requirement to : "Other marking not related to ballot selection and verification status of the paper record shall be in English." 6.8.3.4 is not worded correctly. There are other markings not related to ballot selection that should be in the voter's native language. For example, the verification page indication will be Page X of Y, where "Page" is translated. Another example is the spoiled or accepted mark, which should be in the voter's language.
