A vote cast on a lever-type voting machine, as specified by the legally valid ballot instructions, shall be the choice made by a voter, not to exceed the maximum allowable votes per race or question than the number for which the voter is eligible to vote, by either operating the lever adjacent to the name of the candidate or ballot question or by writing or stamping the name of a write-in candidate whose name does not otherwise appear on the ballot for that office, in or upon the proper receptacle or device provided, followed by the voter activating the cast vote mechanism.
