John Key has called for a recount of the Waitakare count.
Others have called for a a judicial recount, do they mean an Electoral Petition.
Is the recount Key called for a Judicial one or do the Commission do it.
Lord Burns wants a Judicial recount for CHCH Central.
Can someone enlighten me please?

GD ... I think you will find they mean a recount to be conducted by a District Court Judge.
The application must be lodged by the candidate (in this case Burns and Bennett) by 5.00 pm on Wednesday and costs the applicant $1k (GST incl).
Thanks for that I was confused between Judicial recount and Electoral Petition.
Was in the Wairarapa when Wyat's team took Boorman out with a petition and was a mate of the Late Peter Gillkison who was heavily involved in the legals.
