Paragraph 144
 

144.  The voting is, however, only to be repeated if the “total number of voters registered at those polling stations … has impact on the result”. This may mean that a small discrepancy between number of ballots in the box and the number voted may lead to a new election even if the discrepancy could not change the result. It would be better to make the re-election dependent on the fact that irregularities may have affected the outcome.[107
