Those are called "tamper-evident laser-printed PIN mailers", but for a voting slip, this term certainly does not apply. But why the voting slip needs to be "non-show-through"? Don't you mark on the slip in a booth and then put it inside the ballot box immediately?http://www.englishforums.com/English/ShowThrough/gvzqw/post.htm#522710Wed, 25 Feb 2009 07:50:28 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:522710Marius Hancu4http://www.englishforums.com/English/ShowThrough/gvzqw/post.htm#522710http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-522710.xmltransparenthttp://www.englishforums.com/English/ShowThrough/gvzqw/post.htm#522578Wed, 25 Mar 2009 07:50:28 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:522578Feebs115http://www.englishforums.com/English/ShowThrough/gvzqw/post.htm#522578http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-522578.xmlMany cheap papers are not opaque, and printing can be seen through them.http://www.englishforums.com/English/ShowThrough/gvzqw/post.htm#522570Wed, 25 Mar 2009 07:50:28 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:522570Old Man Gordon6http://www.englishforums.com/English/ShowThrough/gvzqw/post.htm#522570http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-522570.xmlSince most sheets are opaque, making the distinction seems redundant. What is the purpose of the sentence? Were the previous ballots see-through?
