    Yes, GEMS can be programmed to reject this ballot.

    In GEMS, Setup>AccuVote Options>Reject Settings; check the box that says
    "Overvoted Crossover Races".  This assumes that the races are linked to
    different voter groups, i.e. Setup>Voter Groups>Parties AND on the Options
    tab (VGroup1)for the individual races.

    Please see below and advise.  I have already related we support straight
    party and straight party crossover.  I believe she is funning GEMS 1.11.8
    or possibly 1. 13

    Can GEMS be programmed to prohibit cross party voting.  Alaska will be
    implementing new primary rules for the 2002 election.  One of the ideas
    floating around is having one ballot that lists all candidates from a
    variety of political parties.  Once a voter fills in the first oval for
    a Democrat, they must continue to vote for all democratic candidates
    throughout the remainder of the races appearing on the ballot.  If a
    voter tried to vote for a Libertarian candidate, can GEMS be programmed
    to reject this ballot?

    Basically, it means straight party voting, no switching around from race
    to race.  I need to know an answer to this very soon.  Thanks.
