Period when electoral campaign is prohibited

No electoral propaganda may be disseminated nor can any electoral campaign event be held once the campaign is legally finished. Gratuitous reception of means from public administrative entities shall be strictly limited to the electoral campaign period. Provided that said restrictions shall be without prejudice of any activities carried out by parties, coalitions and federations in the exercise of their constitutionally acknowledged functions, and in particular by Section 20 of the Constitution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, from the call of the election to the legal start of the campaign, no commercial publicity or propaganda shall be allowed by means of posters, commercial supporting devices or advertisements in the press, in wireless station or digital means, nor can such acts be justified as the exercise of the ordinary activities of the parties, federations or coalitions acknowledged in the preceding subsection.
