§  9-210.  Statements  of  canvass  by  canvassing  boards.  Upon  the
  completion of the canvass the canvassing  board  shall  make  statements
  thereof,  showing  separately  the  result  for  each  office and ballot
  proposal. Each such statement shall set forth, in words written  out  at
  length,  all  votes cast for all candidates for each office; the name of
  each candidate; the number of votes so cast for each, and, in  the  case
  of  a  candidate who was nominated by two or more parties or independent
  bodies, the number, separately stated, of votes  cast  for  him  as  the
  candidate  of  each party or independent body by which he was nominated;
  and all votes so cast upon any ballot proposal, and  all  the  votes  so
  cast  in  favor  of  and  against the same respectively. Such statements
  shall show the total number of unrecorded or blank votes and  the  total
  number of votes cast for each office and each ballot proposal.
Such  statements  shall be certified as correct over the signatures of
  the members of the board, or a majority of  them,  and  such  statements
  together  with  any  tabulation  sheets  showing  the  vote  by election
  districts from which such statements were made, shall be  filed  in  the
  office  of  the  board  of elections. The separate statement relating to

  to be printed in pamphlet form.

§ 9-212. Determinations by county canvassing boards. 1. The canvassing
  board  shall  determine  each  person  elected by the greatest number of
  votes to each county office, and each person  elected  by  the  greatest
  number  of votes to each city, town or village office of a city, town or
  village of which it is the board of  canvassers.  The  canvassing  board
  shall  also  determine whether any ballot proposal submitted only to the
  voters of the county, or only to the voters of a city, town  or  village
  of  which  it is the board of canvassers, as the case may be, has by the
  greater number of votes been adopted or rejected.
2. All such determinations shall be  in  writing  and  signed  by  the
  members  of  the  canvassing  board  or a majority of them and filed and
  recorded in the office of the board of elections. Except in the city  of
  New  York  and  in  the  counties of Nassau, Orange and Westchester, the
  board of elections shall cause a copy of such determinations, and of the
  statements filed in its  office  upon  which  such  determinations  were
  based,  to  be  published  once  in each of the newspapers designated to
  publish election notices and the  official  canvass.  The  statement  of
  canvass  to  be  published, however, shall not give the vote by election
  districts but shall contain only the total vote for  a  person,  or  the
  total vote for and the total vote against a ballot proposal, cast within
  the county, or within the portion thereof, if any, in which an office is
  filled or ballot proposal is decided by the voters if the canvass of the
  vote  thereon  devolves upon the county board of canvassers. Such totals
  shall be expressed in arabic numerals.
3. The board of elections shall prepare and forthwith transmit to each
  person determined by  the  canvassing  board  to  have  been  elected  a
  certified  statement,  naming  the office to which such canvassing board
  has declared him elected.
4. The appropriate state or local election official shall establish  a
  free  access system (such as a toll-free telephone number or an internet
  website) that any individual who casts an affidavit ballot may access to
  discover whether the vote of that individual was counted,  and,  if  the
  vote was not counted, the reason that the vote was not counted.

  preference to  receive  a  voter  registration  application,  a  special
  federal  ballot  application  or  a  special  federal  ballot  by  mail,
  facsimile transmission or electronic mail. Such designation shall remain
  in effect until revoked or changed by the special federal  voter.  If  a
  special  federal  voter  does  not  designate a preference, the board of
  elections shall transmit the  voter  registration  application,  special
  federal  ballot  application  or  special  federal  ballot by mail. If a
  special federal voter designates a preference for facsimile transmission
  or electronic mail but does not provide the necessary  facsimile  number

  registration application, special federal ballot application or  special
  federal  ballot  by  mail  and  request  the  omitted  information.  All
  communications to the special federal voter shall  include  the  mailing

  shall prepare a registration poll record and a central file registration
  record for each voter registered pursuant to this title or  shall  enter
  the  name  of  each  such  voter  into the computer files from which the
  computer generated registration list is prepared. Each such registration
  record shall be endorsed on both the front and rear with the endorsement
  "special federal voter". The records of special federal voters  in  such
  computer  files  shall  be  coded  in  a manner which distinguishes such
  voters from the other voters in such files.
3. The central file registration records  of  special  federal  voters
  shall  be maintained in a separate file at the appropriate office of the
  board of elections.

  poll  ledger  or  a  separate,  clearly marked section, of the main poll
  ledger or be clearly marked in the computer generated registration  list
  as the board of elections shall determine.

  applications for such registration.
2.    If  any ballot, application form or other mail sent to a special
  federal voter at his address outside the United States by such board  is
  returned  by  the  post  office as undeliverable, the board of elections
  shall send a confirmation notice to such special federal voter  at  such
  address  pursuant to the provisions of section 5-712 of this chapter and
  shall place the registration of such voter in inactive  status.  If  the
  board of elections subsequently receives notice of a new address outside

  the  provisions  of  section  5-400 of this chapter shall be eligible to
