     204C.25 Disposition of ballots. 


    After the count and the summary statements have been 
 completed, in the presence of all the election judges, the 
 counted, defective and blank ballots shall be placed in 
 envelopes marked or printed to distinguish the color of the 
 ballots contained, and the envelopes shall be sealed.  The 
 election judges shall sign each envelope over the sealed part so 
 that the envelope cannot be opened without disturbing the 
 continuity of the signatures.  The number and kind of ballots in 
 each envelope, the name of the town or city, and the name of the 
 precinct shall be plainly written upon the envelopes.  The 
 number and name of the district must be plainly written on 
 envelopes containing school district ballots.  The spoiled 
 ballots shall be placed in separate envelopes and returned with 
 the unused ballots to the county auditor or municipal or school 
 district clerk from whom they were received.
