Representatives of a candidate, political party, or independent body entitled to have watchers present at the polls may observe the review of ballot envelopes. Poll watchers cannot make any objections that would cause a ballot to be set aside, preventing the opening of the absentee envelope. Poll watchers cannot inspect the face of the ballot and cannot make any objections on the ballot itself.
