If an electronic process is not used, the clerk shall, under the direction of the court, publicly draw from the container the appropriate number of ballots to form the jury. Before the name of any juror is drawn, the container shall be closed and the contents shall be intermingled. The clerk shall then, without looking at the ballots, draw them from the container.
