The candidate is acclaimed; the noun is an acclamation. At least in Canada it is; neither the Oxford Dictionary nor the New Lexicon Webster's Encyclopedic Dictionary seem to have this as a definition.
Say, is this a homework question???

The candidate has been "acclaimed".

What is it is their first time? How can they be 'returned?'

Perhaps I should have prefaced my answer with, "In the UK it would be..."
1 LEGAL return a verdict/sentence to decide and say whether you think someone is guilty or not guilty, or what punishment the person will be given in a law court:
The jury returned a verdict of not guilty.
2 UK to elect someone to be a member of parliament, or to another political job.
