This section is included in your selections.

If, upon recount, a different candidate or position on a proposition or question is certified or if the vote on recount is two (2) percent or more in excess of the vote originally certified for the candidate or position on a proposition or question supported by the recount application, the entire deposit shall be refunded to the recount application. If this section does not require that the entire deposit be refunded, the clerk shall refund any money remaining after the cost of the recount has been paid from the deposit. If it is determined that the contestant shall bear the costs of the recount pursuant to this section and the deposit is insufficient to cover the costs, the city may recover the excess costs from the contestant. If the recount is obtained by voters, each of them shall be individually liable for the whole amount of such expense. [Ord. 11-13 § 2.]
