Újraszámolás

Újraszámolás refers to the process of recounting or re-examining previously calculated figures or results. This term is most commonly encountered in the context of elections, where it signifies a formal request or procedure to recount all or a portion of the ballots cast. Such recounts are typically initiated when there is a perceived discrepancy, a very close margin of victory, or allegations of irregularities or fraud in the initial vote count.

The decision to order a recount can be influenced by various factors, including the significance of the election, the magnitude of the vote difference, and the legal framework of the jurisdiction. Recount procedures vary by country and region, often involving the physical re-examination of paper ballots or, in some cases, the re-running of electronic voting systems. The goal of an újraszámolás is to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the election outcome.

Beyond electoral contexts, "újraszámolás" can also refer to the re-evaluation of financial statements, scientific data, or any other situation where a review of prior calculations is deemed necessary. This might be due to errors discovered, a need for increased precision, or a change in methodology. The underlying principle remains the same: to verify and, if necessary, correct previous computations.
