        49.92  VOTING MARK.
         The instructions appearing on the ballot shall describe the
      appropriate mark to be used by the voter.  The mark shall be
      consistent with the requirements of the voting system in use in the
      precinct.  The voting mark used on paper ballots may be a cross or
      check which shall be placed in the voting targets opposite the names
      of candidates.  The fact that the voting mark is made by an
      instrument other than a black lead pencil shall not affect the
      validity of the ballot unless it appears that the color or nature of
      the mark is intended to identify the ballot contrary to the intent of
      section 39A.4, subsection 1.
