 As an elaboration 
on this, the straight party choice effects the selection of all candidates 
endorsed by the straight party selected, however, the voting areas next to each 
candidate are not disabled with the straight party selection.  As a result, 
it is possible to select alternate candidates without disabling the initial 
straight party choice, but once the alternate candidate is selected in a race, 
all voting areas in the race are disabled (provided the number of candidates 
selected is equal to the number to vote for).

  Subject: R6 Straight Party One Touch to 
  change vote 
  
  
  
  On the R6 with a Harris County, TX 
  ballot, I selected straight party.  
  It properly marked the party I selected, but when I went into the 
  ballot,  I then could change a 
  vote by simply touching a candidate of a different party.  The point I am making is that I did 
  not have to touch the “Red X’ to remove the vote before I selected a vote for 
  another candidate.  This sounds 
  like a requirement that Pennsylvania had in changing a vote with “One 
  Touch”.
