I don't think the "up to N valid ballots" is what you really intend, and it's definitely unclear. How about the tally of votes only needs to include N+1 valid votes if there are more, or all valid votes if there are not. > is synonymous with "Without 1 Objection".

Similarly the tally of votes only needs to include N valid votes if there are more, or all valid votes if there are not. I suggest that you also ament rule 1728 to make the implicit SUPPORT ballot explicitly conditional on SUPPORT being a valid vote value. -zefram
