What's a magisterial recount?
Published in the Jamaica Gleaner : Wednesday | September 5, 2007
If the results of the general election in any constituency are challenged, after the final count is announced, a magisterial recount can be requested.
This recount will be done before a resident magistrate in the parish or constituency where the count is being challenged.
In addition to candidates or their legal representatives, the returning officer and his election clerks must be present.
The returning officer must make available "parcels containing the used and counted, the unused, the rejected, and the spoiled ballot papers, or the original statements of the poll signed by the presiding officers".
