Section 15-134. Failure to designate terms

No election of village officers,
  held  in  any village, shall be invalid on account of the failure of the
  electors to designate in their ballots the respective terms of office of
  persons to be elected thereat, for the same office, for different terms;
  but the persons so to be elected to such office, who  are  eligible  and
  receive  the highest number of votes, shall be elected. The person first
  named on a ballot containing the names of more than one person for  such
  an  office,  and not designating their respective terms, shall be deemed
  designated for the longest term, the second, for the next longest  term,
  and  so  on  to  the end; and the inspectors of election shall count the
  ballots and certify the result accordingly.
