Check votes again in detail (7)
I believe the answer is:
recount
'detail' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'check votes again' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'again' could be 're' (prefix meaning 'again') and 're' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'count' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for recount that I've seen before include "Election event" , "Give report" , "outcome of tight ballot?" , "post-election procedure?" , "Tell in detail" .)
