Sec. 18. (a) This section applies to a federal write-in absentee ballot cast in a primary election as provided in IC 3-11-4-12.5 (b)(1) by an absent uniformed services voter or overseas voter. (b) If a voter does any of the following, the voter's vote is void: (1) The voter votes for more than one (1) candidate, and the candidates are not on the official primary ballot of the same political party. (2) The voter votes for a candidate who is not on the official primary ballot of any political party. (3) The voter votes for a candidate who is on the official primary ballot of a political party, but the voter does not indicate the office for which the candidate seeks to be nominated. (c) If the voter votes for a political party, but the voter does not vote for any individual candidates who are on that political party's official primary ballot, the voter's vote is void. (d) If there is a discrepancy between political party primary ballot choice between the federal write-in absentee ballot described in subsection (a) and the federal post card application, the federal post card application supersedes the federal write-in absentee ballot.
