If original records of a registrar of voters are destroyed as a result of catastrophic loss or damage and there are no microfilm, microfiche, or scanned or electronically captured computerized images of the original records of voters, every attempt shall be made to re-create the records of voters who are not canceled. Computer records from the secretary of state's database shall be deemed the original records until such time as the records can be recreated.
