If someone wants to write Shelly Sekula Gibbs in, its not that hard. The hardest part is to convince a person to remember to do so. The actual process is very simple. You get to the space for the CD-22 vote and move the choice to write in. After that you just work the letters one at a time. A list of the write-in candidates is placed inside each voting booth, so remembering the name is not a problem.
