When a recount request is properly filed within the 48-hour period, the board of canvassers has an additional 24 hours at the end of the 48 hours in which to send notice to all candidates for the office for which the recount is requested, giving the date, time and place of the recount. The time for the recount can be no sooner than three days after the notice is served. The sheriff of the county (or the sheriff's designee) is required to serve and make return of the notice according to the procedure set out in West Virginia Code §3-6-9.
