110  Vote not informal merely because candidate dies

  Where a candidate dies between the *hour of nomination and the *close of the poll, and the number of candidates remaining is greater than the number of candidates to be elected, a ballot‑paper is not to be informal by reason only:

 (a) of the inclusion on the ballot‑paper or the *list of candidates of the name of the deceased candidate; or

 (b) of the marking of any number opposite that name; or

 (c) of the marking of the *candidate number of the deceased candidate on the ballot‑paper.
