        Recounts in a candidate race can be required under RCW 29A.64 if the margin between the candidates is close enough, or if one is requested. A machine recount is required if the margin between two candidates is less than 2,000 votes and 0.5 percentage points. A hand recount is required if the margin is less than 150 votes and within 0.25 percentage points. A group of five residents can also request a recount, but must be willing to pay for it. The video below explains the process.
