Artikel 9

Each ballot shall be taken as follows:
(a) Votes shall be cast on forms which the Secretary shall furnish before the beginning of the ballot to each Governor entitled to vote. On each ballot, only those votes shall be counted which have been cast on the forms distributed for that ballot.
(b) After the name of each country is announced by the Secretary, the Governor therefor shall deposit his signed vote in the ballot box.
(c) When a ballot has been completed, the tellers shall check the number of votes and proceed to a count of the votes cast.
(d) If the tellers are of the opinion that any particular vote needs clarification or has not been properly executed, they shall, if possible, afford the Governor concerned an opportunity to correct it before completing the tally; and such vote, if so corrected, shall be deemed to be valid.
(e) As many ballots as are necessary shall be taken until all the Executive Directors to be elected in the separate elections provided for in Section 3 (c), Section 3 (d), and Section 4 of these Regulations have been elected, in each case in a single ballot.
(f) The Chairman of the Board shall state whether or not an election has been effected and if it has, he shall announce the names of the persons elected and of the member countries which elected them.
