1. There were many ballots
This was not an election to elect a new leader, it was to elect their legislature (or something like that), so the ballots would widely vary from locality to locality.

4. actually
there were various provincial ballots, but from what I understand, only one national ballot. The National Assembly was not elected regionally - that was a national election with one ballot.

6. Deja Vu! U.S. Encouraged by Vietnam Vote
U.S. Encouraged by Vietnam Vote :
Officials Cite 83% Turnout Despite Vietcong Terror

by Peter Grose, Special to the New York Times (9/4/1967: p. 2)

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3-- United States officials were surprised and
heartened today at the size of turnout in South Vietnam's presidential
election despite a Vietcong terrorist campaign to disrupt the voting.

According to reports from Saigon, 83 per cent of the 5.85 million
registered voters cast their ballots yesterday. Many of them risked
reprisals threatened by the Vietcong.

The size of the popular vote and the inability of the Vietcong to
destroy the election machinery were the two salient facts in a
preliminary assessment of the nation election based on the incomplete
returns reaching here.
