Fulton Results of Election ordinance (Charter § 10.7)

(a) Initiative. If a majority of the qualified electors voting on a proposed initiative ordinance vote in its favor, it shall be considered adopted upon certification of the election results and shall be treated in all respects in the same manner as ordinances of the same kind adopted by the council. If conflicting ordinances are approved at the same election, the one receiving the greatest number of affirmative votes shall prevail to the extent of such conflict.

(b) Referendum. If a majority of the qualified electors voting on a referred ordinance vote against it, it shall be considered repealed upon certification of the election results.

(c) Recall. If a majority of the qualified registered voters voting in such recall election shall vote in favor of the recall, then a vacancy shall exist, regardless of a defect in the recall petition. Such vacancy shall be filled as provided in this charter. If a majority of the qualified registered voters voting in such election shall vote against the recall, the elected official shall continue in office. Any such person who has been recalled shall be ineligible to serve in the city in any capacity at any time during the remainder of the term for which he was originally elected.
