The question thus presented shall be followed with the words "YES" and "NO" and instructions shall appear on such ballot that those who wish the issuance of bonds shall strike through the word "NO" while those who oppose the issuance of bonds shall strike through the word "YES."

If more than one question appears on the ballot, the instructions shall make it clear to all voters that they may vote for one or more proposals and against the others or that they may vote for one or more proposals and not vote for or against the others.
