Statute Text
A member of the county canvassing board who has anything of value bet or wagered on the result of the election may not serve on the board. When a member of the county canvassing board is a candidate or husband, wife, father, mother, father-in-law, mother-in-law, son, daughter, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother, or sister, whether by birth or marriage, of the whole or the half-blood, of any candidate for any office for which that member canvasses the votes, the member must be removed from that portion of the canvass. If any of the members of the board other than the representatives of the two political parties are disqualified or cannot serve for any other reason, the county commissioners who would be qualified to serve on the board shall appoint alternates to serve in the place of those members of the board who are disqualified. If any of the representatives of the district committees of the two parties are disqualified or cannot serve for any other reason and if the party wishes to have representation, the district chairmen shall appoint an alternate from their respective district committees to act as a member of the county canvassing board. A majority of the confirmed members of the board or their duly appointed alternates constitute a quorum and may make the canvass provided for in this chapter and certify the results thereof.
