If it is necessary to open a ballot box to ascertain if missing election returns are enclosed therein, the ballot box shall be opened in the presence of the county canvassing board by the county clerk and the district judge, or someone designated by him. If it is necessary to send the key of the ballot box to his designated representative, the district judge shall send it by certified mail, and it shall be returned in the same manner.
