 Tari, 
    To recap you 
problem:    When there is no write-in text and the Ballot Options 
flag is for write-in text below the line then the line for the last write-in 
candidate is drawn on top of the race box line. 
    There are two work 
arounds.   
    1) Is the one you have found. 
that is place a blank line - all it needs to be is a single space 
character. 
    2) Set the Ballot Options flag 
to write-in text above the line. 
    We could enhance GEMS by 
limiting the write-in line to be 1/32 inch above the bottom of the "candidate 
box".
