62.18 - JUDGMENT.

        62.18  JUDGMENT.
         The court shall adjudge whether the incumbent or any other person
      was duly elected, and that the person elected is entitled to the
      certificate.  If the court finds that the election resulted in a tie
      vote for any office, the tie shall be resolved pursuant to section
      50.44.  If the judgment is against the incumbent, and the incumbent
      has already received the certificate, the judgment shall annul the
      certificate.  If the court finds that no person was elected, the
      judgment shall be that the election be set aside.
