Recount completed: result remains unchanged
On Wednesday morning, March 25, the Central Electoral Bureau recounted the votes for list 5 Ons Roerdalen and list 2 CDA. The result remains unchanged.
Result remains unchanged
Normally, a recount is only conducted if there are indications that something went wrong. This was not the case this time. The recount was carried out because the difference in (preference) votes between candidate number 1 and 2 of Ons Roerdalen was very small. Ons Roerdalen secured 1 seat on the municipal council. The votes for list 2 CDA were also recounted, at the request of a candidate from this party. This candidate fell short of the preference threshold by 2 votes and therefore requested a recount.
The recount did not reveal any discrepancies. The outcome remains the same.
