Sec. 22. If a nomination or election is contested or a recount is conducted, the returns of each precinct election board, as corrected by the county election board under section 21 of this chapter, constitute prima facie evidence of the vote cast for each candidate and on each public question to the same extent as the tabulation and return of the vote in a precinct where electronic voting systems are not used.
