A. If a discrepancy sufficient to change the result of the election between the total votes cast in an election and the number of eligible voters voting in an election district occurs as a result of any precinct containing multiple election districts in which votes were cast and counted in the wrong election district, the court shall order a revote for that election in the precinct or precincts containing multiple election districts where such a discrepancy occurred. B. The revote shall include all candidates listed on the ballot in the challenged election for the disputed office. The revote shall be limited to those persons listed on the poll list as having cast their ballots in person at the polls in the election in which the discrepancy occurred. C. Those persons who cast their votes by absentee by mail or early voting ballots in that election shall not be eligible to vote in the revote election. The votes cast by absentee by mail or early voting ballot in the first election shall be retained, counted, and added to the voting machine totals in the revote election.
