Separate write-in line, with no named statewide write-in roster

Official county sample ballots provide a blank write-in line for U.S. Senator. The certified state roster does not publish a named statewide write-in candidate list, so this guide counts zero named statewide write-ins while preserving the write-in line as a separate ballot option.
