The name of each candidate shall also be printed or written in red ink in small but legible letters between each two red lines and across the upper portion of each set of squares at the right of the name of the same candidate in the left hand column, so that the clerk who tallies the vote will be enabled to place the tally mark in the proper square without looking to the left hand column for the name.
