43.15 Requirements in signing.
The following requirements shall be observed in the signing and preparation of nomination
blanks:
1. A signer may sign nomination papers for more than one candidate for the same office,
and the signature is not invalid solely because the signer signed nomination papers for one
or more other candidates for the office.

and the date of signing.
3. All signers, for all nominations, of each separate part of a nomination paper, shall

petitions for supervisor candidates shall reside in the supervisor district the candidate seeks
to represent.
4. When more than one sheet is used, the sheets shall be neatly arranged and securely
fastened together before filing, and shall be considered one nomination petition.
5. Only one candidate shall be petitioned for or nominated in the same nomination paper.
