en · 717 chars · active
(a) A petition filed under this chapter may request that ballot cards in specified
precincts that used a ballot card voting system be counted manually. If a petition includes
such a request, the recount commission may not use automatic tabulating machines to count
ballot cards in the specified precincts. Ballot cards in those precincts shall be counted
manually, and the tabulation of votes must comply with IC 3-11-7.
(b) A petitioner may withdraw a request for a manual recount of ballot cards at any time
after the recount commission conducts a test of the automatic tabulating machines to
ascertain that the machines will correctly count the votes cast on the public question that is
the subject of the recount.
