§ 1418Tie Votes

In the case of a tie vote not
otherwise provided for by law, the candidates receiving the tie
vote shall cast lots before the county board or the Secretary
of the Commonwealth, as the case may be, at 12 o'clock noon on
the third Friday after the election, and the one to whom the
lot shall fall shall be declared elected. In any case where the
fact of a tie vote is not authoritatively determined until after
the third Wednesday after the election, the time for casting
lots shall be 12 o'clock noon of the second day after the fact
of such tie vote is authoritatively determined. If any candidate
or candidates receiving a tie vote, fail to appear before twelve
o'clock noon of said day, the county board or the Secretary of
the Commonwealth, as the case may be, shall cast lots for him
or them. For the purpose of casting lots any candidate may
appear in person, or by proxy duly appointed in writing.
