Taiwan's legislature may pass a rule letting several referendum questions share a single ballot, and election workers in Taipei say it will make vote counting a mess.

• The bill, pushed by a KMT lawmaker, could clear the legislature on Friday.
• The head of the Central Election Commission publicly urged lawmakers not to do it.
• Election workers warn that if a voter marks one question wrong, nobody knows whether the whole ballot dies or just that question.
• Voters also lose the right to refuse a referendum ballot, since all the questions come as one sheet.
• Taipei and New Taipei already struggle to hire poll workers, who get yelled at and threatened with lawsuits for a part-time job.

Outlook: If the change passes Friday, the next referendum vote will be faster to hand out but slower and more disputed to count.
