Sec. 29. The canvass of votes cast in a primary election shall, as far as applicable, be made in the same manner and by the same officers as the canvass at a general election. The tally sheet upon which the count has been entered shall be included in the returns of the election. Each precinct election board shall, on blanks provided for that purpose, make full and accurate returns of the votes cast for each candidate and on each public question unless votes were cast on a ballot card voting system that is not designed to allow the counting and tabulation of votes by the precinct election board. The board shall set forth in the return, opposite the name of each candidate and public question, the number of votes cast for the candidate and for or against each public question. The tabular statement must contain the following information, with the names of candidates and public questions arranged in the order in which they appear upon the official ballot:

(1) The name of the precinct.

(2) The name of the township (or ward).

(3) The name of the county.

(4) The name of the party of the candidates for Representative in Congress.
