The losing candidate for any office at the municipal election may request a recount of the ballots cast when the official canvass of such votes cast reveals that there is a difference of 25 votes or less between the total cast for the winner and the loser. Such recount shall be made if the losing candidate files a written request therefor with the Municipal Clerk-Treasurer within three days following the completion of the official canvass.
