Can Invalid Rosters Vote for Arbitration?

This discussion has happened many times on these forums, including most prominently here:

Cracking Down On Illegal Lineups in 2017

For 2017, I’d love to see the following two rule changes: Owners/teams with illegal lineups are highlighted in red text on the standings page (similar to the way players activity involved in a trade are highlighted in blue) Teams with an illegal lineup for > 72 consecutive hours do not accrue points beginning in 73rd hour, going forward.

and here:

Going over roster/cap limits towards the end of the season

A related question, say, for example, a team makes a dozen of such final day claims. In doing so, he goes way over his team’s cap space and roster limits. Will the system allow this team to participate in arbitration in this illegal state? I don’t think it should.

The second thread has most of the discussion I believe you are interested in.
