These motions are used to demand a ballot vote, count a vote, or close or reopen polls.

Explanation:
Motions that govern how voting is conducted fall under the category of methods of voting and the polls. Demanding a ballot vote, counting a vote, or closing or reopening polls are all about how votes are taken and tallied, not about who is nominated, who will hold an office, or the general conduct of the meeting. Nominations deal with presenting names for positions, motions about officers concern officer appointments or election rules for those roles, and motions about procedures address the broader flow and rules of the meeting. Since these items specifically affect the voting process itself, they fit best with methods of voting and the polls.
