1404 LAWS OF MARYLAND. [CH. 583

Town Manager, upon being so directed by the Council, shall
provide for polling places and necessary supplies, including
glass ballot boxes. The same limit regulations that prevail
in County elections relative to electioneering shall govern
these elections.

651. (Nominations. ) (a) Any qualified elector of the
town may be nominated for the office of Councilman. The
name of such elector shall be printed upon the ballot when-
ever a petition and a written acceptance of nomination as
hereinafter prescribed shall have been filed in his behalf
with the Town Clerk. Such petition shall be signed by not
less than 3% nor more than 5% of the electors, these num-
bers to be determined by the Town Clerk on the basis of the
number registered at the time of closing of the registration
list before the last general municipal election. No elector
shall sign more than one such petition, and should an elector
do so, his signature shall be void as to the petition or peti-
tions last filed.

(b) The signatures of the nomination petition need not
all be appended to one paper, but to each separate paper
there shall be attached an affidavit of the circulator thereof,
stating the number of signers of such paper and that each
signature appended thereto was made in his presence and is
the genuine signature of the person whose name it purports
to be. With each signature shall be stated the place of resi-
dence of the signer, giving the street name and number or
other description sufficient to identity the same.

stantially as follows:
