I was going to suggest separating these two bits if it got any more

I don't think the "up to N valid ballots" is what you really intend,
and it's definitely unclear. How about
the tally of votes only needs to include N+1 valid votes if there
are more, or all valid votes if there are not.

Similarly
the tally of votes only needs to include N valid votes if there
are more, or all valid votes if there are not.
I suggest that you also ament rule 1728 to make the implicit SUPPORT
ballot explicitly conditional on SUPPORT being a valid vote value.
