You cannot pos t online surveys or doors to � � allow voters to vote online. This is vote han dling. You cannot accept � � ballots & mail or fax them in for callers. T he rule of thumb is pretty � � clear: You can provide anything you like TO c allers to induce them to vote.� � There is NOTHING you can accept FROM callers  in any way pertaining to this � � ballot at all. THEY must complete the ballot  & forward it to us themselves.� �   � � We actually received FEDEX packages on the fi nal day of the contest last � � year from BBS operators who claimed to have c ollected a hundred or so � � votes. Infractions are dealt with quite econ omically - the BBS is � � summarily disqualified without recourse or ap peal. � �   � � One new element introduced in the 1993 contes t is date scoring. All � � ballots received from 1 January 1993 through  30 June 1993 will receive a � � date score based on the date of receipt. Dat e scores will range from 180 � � for votes received 1 January down to 1 for vo tes received on June 30. � 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴�
