Otherwise the applicant or applicants seeking the recount shall be liable for the actual cost of conducting the recount up to a maximum of five hundred dollars ($500.00) per county recounted. Every county clerk shall issue a complete accounting of all costs of the recount to the candidate requesting the recount, and shall refund any surplus to the candidate.
