This bill clarifies the membership rules for county recount boards by specifying different composition requirements depending on the type of election being recounted. For general elections and ballot questions, recount boards must include a lawyer from the largest-voting gubernatorial party plus two county voters from the two largest parties; for primary elections and runoffs, all board members must belong to the same political party as the candidates in the race being recounted.
