I'd support revising the instructions to recommend that voters rank all options on the ballot. I don't support mandating it. If someone doesn't rank an option I'd rather accept a ballot than reject it. If someone wrote a patch to warn people if they sent in a not fully ranked ballot, I'd also support that. I just prefer to accept as many votes as we can rather than disenfranchising people. But I agree that fully ranking the ballot is likely to avoid surprises. --Sam
