[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

There is usually a "R" and a "D" right at the beginning of the ballot. If you stroke "R", will that vote go to the write in because she is a Repub?

No. If you do not write in her name, she does not get the vote.

[Don'tMessWithTexas]

Yes, but her name is listed on the ballot to serve Delay's remaining term. All one needs to do is look at the ballot for the name and the spelling.
