If some are not "accepted nominations", why are their names on the ballot?

<div> During the voting process, there have been a few write-in votes. This is GREAT! Please, keep in mind, however, that write-in votes are not truly accepted nominations. Some of the write-in votes are for people that have already voted for others. In other words, they probably don't even know they have been nominated. There is absolutely nothing wrong voting for write-in candidates but you may want to make sure they know they have been nominated. We are trying to keep up with the voting to place "Write-In candidate" next to those names. Due to a restriction in the software, write-in candidates will display in the choices. The following are accepted nominations by the nominees. All others are write-ins.</div>
