According to Article 1, “Electoral campaign” refers to the time period allowed for activities aimed at influencing the voters to cast their votes for one or another candidate, commencing for each electoral contestant respectively on the day he/she is registered with the Central Electoral Commission or district electoral council, and ending on the day of his/her exclusion or the day of the election. The same Article provides a different definition of Electoral Campaign as “the preparation and distribution of information seeking to influence the voters to vote for one or another electoral contestant”. It is unclear why the Code contains two definitions of the same term in one and the same Article.
