The content of these bullets is collected in a status object in Election->getQualifiedStatus() via $status->error() and $status->fatal() calls, bubbles up the stack 3 or 4 levels, then is converted to a wiki bulleted list in VotePage->execute() in $out->addWikiTextAsInterface( $status->getWikiText() );

In addition to (preferably) or instead of removing the bullet, adding "due to the reason(s) above" to the end of the first sentence on the last line would also make it clear that that line is not a reason why they cannot vote. Seeing a list of three items when there are only two reasons why you cannot vote is confusing.

Support this update, though I think it can be made in the local config for now, since that is meant to be customizable per election/circumstance anyways.

Change #1268074 had a related patch set uploaded (by HakanIST; author: HakanIST):

[mediawiki/extensions/SecurePoll@master] VotePage: Display unqualified-error outside bulleted list

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/1268074

I submitted a patch for this: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/SecurePoll/+/1268074

The approach: Instead of adding the custom unqualified-error message to the Status object (which causes it to be rendered as a bullet via getWikiText()), the message is now displayed separately by the caller (VotePage and LoginPage) as plain text below the bulleted list of specific qualification failure reasons.

The existing test in ElectionTest.php was updated accordingly.
