If I remember correctly, it's been a 18 months since I voted, some NH races have something similar. I've seen instructions on the ballot like, school board pick any three and then the ballot will have five names. But I can't cast three votes for one name. In my mind this is still one man, one vote, there are just three seats with the same five people running.

I believe it actually says vote for "not more than." This could be open to interpretation. Try a multi-vote next time you really like a candidate and see what happens. It's likely it will make the papers if the race is close.
