An actual conversation between an election officer and an elderly voter I witnessed last time I voted. Local, Regional, and European Elections had been done this way for over 20 years at this point:
Officer: And remember it's not an X, it's 123 in order of preference.
Voter: But I only want to vote for 1.
Officer: Well you can do that but it has to be a 1 not an X.
Officer: And remember it's not an X, it's 123 in order of preference.
Voter: But I only want to vote for 1.
Officer: Well you can do that but it has to be a 1 not an X.
Voter: Not an X?
