What are the criteria for an automatic recount?

Even tonight's results are sent in, we STILL GOT the PROVISIONAL and UNSCANNED VOTES TO COUNT FOR!

-Josh
Explain this.......


A provisional ballot is used to record a vote when there are questions in regards to a given voter's eligibility. A provisional ballot would be cast when:
The voter refuses to show a photo ID (in regions that require one)
The voter's name does not appear on the electoral roll for the given precinct.
The voter's registration contains inaccurate or out-dated information such as the wrong address or a misspelled name.
The voter's ballot has already been recorded

And unscanned votes are obvious.

Inner city turnout is more than the suburbs on a % basis.  Brown has turned tradition upside down.
Hey!  Whatever happened to just plain ol' COMMON SENSE!!

And though I long to embrace, I will not replace my priorities: humour, opinion, a sense of compassion, creativity and a distaste for fashion.

Holland is saying 2000 absentee and provisional ballots that wont be counted until tomorrow. So if the spread is close, we won't know a winner tonight.
