The plain meaning of s.8 requires that an elector may subscribe only once in an election and that the first delivered subscription consumes that elector’s one subscription irrespective of whether the first nomination is later declared invalid; applying that rule the petitioner’s nomination lacked the required ten valid subscribers and the returning officer’s declaration of invalidity was correct, so the petition must be dismissed.
