Hello everyone I am an electoral jury in these elections and in the training they have instructed that first the form and CI will be signed then the digital will be stamped with ink This is where we must be attentive and warn voters that they must clean their finger well because if it STAINS the ballot becomes VOID It Would not hurt to take wet wipes and cut them into four It is a suggestion and then wipe one with toilet paper Please take this information into account and spread it Ah Each person must also bring their own pen Family please do not forget that a blue paste pencil will be used to vote hopefully it is a bic one because there are some that can be erased And with a disposable mask reusable ones are no good they will send you home Spread it to other groups please
