What does "Official Write-In Status" means?
In most states, for a "write-in" candidate to be valid, they have to apply for write-in status beforehand.
The name is not listed, but there is a space in the bottom of the ballot where you can write her name
That seems really backwards for a country that claims to be so democratic. Also seems like a really easy way to dismiss votes, because they didn't perfectly write the name.
For electronic voting machines at least, the write-in candidates are on a separate screen but don't typically require actually hand-writing in the names; you just select the write-in candidate like you would any other.
