part D of regulation last sentence
 

when we have trained Officers of Election that they can not complete ballot for voter who has left DRE machine and then when using Optical Scan they can cast if ballot rejected because of overvote does not make any sense.  I will be using Optical Scan machines in November and have used in Primary for 6/11  I am very concerned about this type of statement.  Why not have voter cast ballot and if rejected because of overvote give the voter the opportunity to have that ballot voided and then THEY not OE cast it?.
