In the event that more eligible candidates than the number to
be elected to the same Village office receive an equal number of votes,

the Village office in question had candidates not received an equal
number of votes, a runoff election shall be held to determine which
of such persons shall be elected.
Such runoff election may be waived and the selection of the
persons elected shall be made by lot if each person who shall have
received an equal number of votes shall file with the Village Clerk
within two days after the final certification of such tie result a
written and signed notice of consent that such selection be made by
lot.
Unless waived, such runoff election shall be held on the first
Tuesday at least 10 days after the final certification of such tie
result, subject to the adoption of a resolution by the Board of Trustees
pursuant to § 15-104, Subdivision 3b, of the Election Law.
The only persons who shall be deemed nominated for the purposes of
§ 15-104, Subdivision 3b, shall be those persons who shall
have received an equal number of votes.
