(a) The candidates at the regular municipal election, equal in number to the places to be filled in each office, who receive the highest number of votes shall be declared elected. If it cannot be determined which of two or more candidates shall be declared elected, by reason of their having recieved the same number of votes, the election authorities shall determine by lot which of the candidates shall be declared elected.
(b) No question submitted to the electors under this Charter shall be passed or carried unless a majority of the electors voting on the question shall vote in favor thereof, and if any State law governing such election shall require more than a majority vote, the percentage of vote required to pass the measure under the State law shall govern in the absence of an ordinance of Council otherwise providing. The form of ballot to be used on all questions submitted to the electors shall be prescribed by Council at the time the question is certified to the proper election officials for the calling of the election.
