Recounting of the vote counting results


1. The constituency electoral committee or municipal electoral committee, when examining a complaint regarding the results of the counting of votes or the election results, shall be entitled to recount, in the presence of at least three fifths of the members of the committee, some or all of the ballot papers and/or election documents submitted by a constituency electoral committee. For this purpose, the constituency electoral committee and the municipal electoral
committee shall be entitled to engage members of polling district electoral committees. If an arithmetic error is found in the vote counting record, or if it is found that ballot papers have been counted incorrectly, the constituency electoral committee and the municipal electoral committee shall draw up an additional vote counting record of a polling district and attach it to the vote counting record of that polling district.

For this purpose, the Central Electoral Commission shall be entitled to engage members of other electoral committees. If an arithmetic error is found in the vote counting record, or if it is found that ballot papers have been counted incorrectly, the Central Electoral Commission shall draw up an additional vote counting record of the constituency electoral committee or a municipal electoral committee and attach it to the vote counting record of that constituency electoral committee or municipal electoral committee.
