designation of all the offices to be voted for.
2. On the top left-hand side of such ballot must begin a continuous listing of the 
designation of each office to be voted for, and under the designation of each office all 
of the names of the candidates duly nominated for that office must be printed.
3. The names of candidates nominated for each office must appear under the 
designation of that office, and under each candidate's name must appear, in smaller

nominated by petition, the designation under that candidate's name, in smaller type, 
must be "independent nomination".

the printing of the official ballot in the same manner as is provided for the primary 
election ballot.
5. The size of type must be as specified by the secretary of state.
The list of offices and candidates and the statements of measures and questions to be 
submitted to the voters must be arranged on the ballot in a manner and form approximating as 
far as possible the requirements of this section.
