(Fox News) - In Venezuela, the military is telling voters not to eat their ballots on Election Day. Citizens will vote Sunday on whether to allow President Hugo Chavez to defy term limits and stay in power as long as he keeps winning elections.

The military says rebellious voters could go to jail if they protest by eating the paper receipts printed by the electronic voting machines. Reuters says the man in charge of overseeing election security says that some voters actually did this during regional balloting in November.

Gen. Jesus Gonzalez tells Reuters, "They've eaten them. This is an electoral crime."
