24.2-663. When ballot void.

If a ballot is found to have been voted for a greater number of names for any one office than the number of persons required to fill the office, or if the title of the office is erased, the ballot shall be considered void as to all the names designated to fill such office, but no further. No ballot shall be void for having been voted for fewer names than authorized.
