        43.63  CANVASS BY STATE BOARD.
         Upon receipt of the abstracts of votes from the counties, the
      secretary of state shall immediately open the envelopes and canvass
      the results for all offices.  The secretary of state shall invite to
      attend the canvass one representative from each political party
      which, at the last preceding general election, cast for its candidate
      for president of the United States or for governor, as the case may
      be, at least two percent of the total vote cast for all candidates
      for that office at that election, as determined by the secretary of
      state.  The secretary of state shall notify the chairperson of each
      political party of the time of the canvass.  However, the presence of
      a representative from a political party is not necessary for the
      canvass to proceed.
         Not later than the twenty-seventh day after the primary election,
      the secretary of state shall present to the state board of canvassers
      abstracts showing the number of ballots cast by each political party
      for each office and a summary of the results for each office, showing
      the votes cast in each county.  The state board of canvassers shall
      review the results compiled by the secretary of state and, if the
      results are accurately tabulated, the state board shall approve the
      canvass.
