CERTIFICATES OF NOMINATION
8-1. Required; how attested.

All nominations shall be attested to by a certificate of nomination.

(a)    If the nomination is by means of a primary election, the

in the manner prescribed for a nomination by a convention, but no

qualified to have his name placed upon the official primary election
ballot at the expiration of the time allowed, for any public office or
position, a certificate of nomination or selection shall be issued to him
forthwith.

(2)    If after the expiration of time allowed by this Article for
candidates for public office, delegates to conventions, members of
State or local central committees to qualify for the purpose of having
their names placed upon the official primary election ballot in any
legislative district of Baltimore City or in any county of the State, it
shall appear that only one set, or less than one set, of candidates of
any such political party have so qualified, then and in that event,
certificates of nomination or selection shall be issued to the candidates
so qualified in a similar manner to that herein provided for candidates
nominated at primary elections.

(b)    The certificate of nomination for any primary meeting shall
contain the names of each person nominated, the address of his
residence, the nature of his business and the name of the office for
which he has been nominated. It shall designate in not more than
one word the party or principle which the primary meeting repre-
sents. The presiding officer and secretary of such primary meeting
shall sign the certificate giving their respective places of residence.
They shall acknowledge the certificate before an officer duly author-
ized to take acknowledgments, who shall append a certificate of such
acknowledgment thereto.

(c)    The certificate of nomination of any person nominated by
petition shall contain the name of the person so nominated, the ad-
