 Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar and Attorney General Aaron Ford filed a petition with the court late Wednesday seeking confirmation of the commissioner's legal obligations when it comes to canvassing and certifying election results. They also want the court to require the full commission to certify the recounts from last month's primary no later than August 22nd, when the statewide canvass must be complete to ensure the contents of general election ballots are finalized in accordance with Nevada law.
