The ballot label designations in a vote upon the question of liquor permits shall be “Shall the sale of alcoholic liquor (Permit for All Alcoholic Liquor) be allowed in .... (Name of town)?” or “Shall the sale of alcoholic liquor under (Specified Permit or Permits) be allowed in .... (Name of town)?” or “Shall the sale of alcoholic liquor be prohibited (No Permits) in .... (Name of town)?” and shall be provided in accordance with the provisions of section 9-250. No elector shall vote for more than one designation. No permit shall be issued for “all alcoholic liquor” unless a majority of the votes cast shall be for “all alcoholic liquor” and votes for “all alcoholic liquor” shall be added to, and counted as, votes for “(specified) permit” or “(specified) permits” in case the votes for “all alcoholic liquor” shall not amount to a majority of the total number of votes cast.
