Invalidating a poll
There are two possible ways by which a poll can be invalidated:
A citizen or citizen group(s) publicly request the Judiciary to investigate the validity of a poll. The request should be posted in the Office of the Judiciary of the active term and must be followed by a confirmation from the Judiciary that they will investigate the validity of a poll.
The Judiciary is bound to investigate every request made by a citizen or citizen group(s)1.
Investigation initiated by the Judiciary
The Judiciary publicly announces to investigate the validity of a poll. The announcement should be posted in the Office of the Judiciary of the active term.
Issueing the invalid verdict
It is then up to the Judiciary, and only the Judiciary2, to declare the investigated poll invalid. The Judiciary's ruling has to be made public and the Judiciary must do its outmost best to rule swiftly.
1 Blatant abuses will be dealt with swiftly in any case as they are blatant abuses. If however this turns out to be unworkable we can always amend it.
2 Until the Judiciary ruled no moderator has the mandate to declare a poll invalid.
