In case of any contested election for Judges, Clerks of the
Courts of Law, and Registers of Wills, the Governor shall send the
returns to the House of Delegates, which shall judge of the election
and qualification of the candidates at such election; and if the
judgment shall be against the one who has been returned elected, or the
one who has been commissioned by the Governor, the House of Delegates
shall order a new election within thirty days.
