§  9-216.  Canvass  of  statements of general and special elections by
  state board of canvassers. 1. The state board of elections shall be  the
  state  board of canvassers. The records of the state board of canvassers
  shall be kept in the custody of the  state  board  of  elections,  which
  shall  assign  a  deputy  or other assistant to act as the clerk of said
  board of canvassers.
2. The state board of canvassers shall canvass the certified copies of
  the statements of the county board of canvassers of  each  county.  They
  shall canvass first the statements, if any, for the offices of president
  and  vice-president  and  next the statements, if any, for the office of
  member of the state senate, and next the statements,  if  any,  for  the
  office  of  member  of  the state assembly.   Three members of the board
  shall constitute a quorum. The state board of canvassers shall  meet  on
  or  before  the  fifteenth day, or, in a year when electors of president
  and vice-president are chosen on or before the first  Monday  after  the
  first  Wednesday,  of  December  next  after  each general election, and
  within  forty  days  after  each  special  election,  to  canvass   such
  statements.  The board may adjourn from day to day, not exceeding a term
  of five days. If any member of the board shall dissent from  a  decision
  of  the  board  or  shall  protest against any of the proceedings of the
  board as irregular, he shall state such dissent or protest in a  writing
  signed by him setting forth his reasons and file it in the office of the
  state board of elections.
3.  Upon  the  completion of the canvass the board shall make separate
  tabulated statements, signed by the members of the board or  a  majority
  thereof,  of  the  number  of votes cast for all the candidates for each
  office voted for, the number of votes cast for each of such  candidates,
  the  number  of  votes  cast  in each county for each of them and if the
  voters of any one district of the state voted for  any  such  candidate,
  the  name and number of such district, the determination of the board as
  to the persons elected to each office, the number  of  votes  cast  upon
  each  ballot  proposal, the number of votes cast in favor of and against
  each respectively, and the determination of the board as to  whether  it
  was adopted or rejected.
4. Such tabulated statements shall be filed and recorded in the office
  of the state board of elections. Thereupon, the state board of elections
  shall transmit a certified copy of each such statement of votes cast for
  candidates  for  any  office  to  the  person shown thereby to have been
  elected to such office.  The state board of elections  shall  prepare  a
  general  certificate  under  the  seal  of the state and attested by the
  members of the state board of  elections,  addressed  to  the  house  of
  representatives of the United States, of the due election of all persons
  chosen  at  that  election as representatives of this state in congress,
  and shall transmit the same to the  house  of  representatives.  If  any
  person  so  chosen  at  such  election shall have been elected to fill a
  vacancy in the office of representative in congress,  the  statement  of
  the state board of elections shall so specify.
