Why is a recount request more sensitive when the margin of victory is very narrow?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because even a small error may affect the result

Correct answer: A. The margin of victory is the difference between the votes received by the leading candidates. When that difference is very small, even a limited counting mistake, incorrectly recorded vote, or disputed ballot could possibly change who is ahead. That is why a request for recounting becomes especially important and sensitive; it must be considered through the authorised electoral procedure, not treated casually. A is correct because it identifies the possible effect of a small error. B is wrong because a recount checks the counted votes and does not automatically restart polling. C is wrong because a narrow margin does not automatically disqualify a candidate. D is wrong because the voter list does not end because of a close result. Memory cue: “Small margin, large consequence.”
