Article 26
 

A list of candidates in a municipality must include at least as many names of candidates as are to be elected as councillors on the municipal council in each instance, and never more than double this number. If a presiding election board receives a list with more names than are prescribed it shall remove from the bottom of the list the names exceeding the prescribed number.

No person may be a candidate on more than one list in the same municipal election.
