To be honest, I can see where the no campaign is coming from though - seems unfair for ticks to count as a valid vote but crosses to not count.

Remove them both IMO, but that ship has sailed for this particular referendum.

Yep if you count a tick as yes you need to count a cross as no. Super dodgy from the Yes side to try and get both as a yes.

It's just a long-standing way in which the AEC interprets the. It's nothing special to this referendum
