Paragraph 50
 

The first Joint Opinion drew attention to Article 88.2 of the draft code, which allowed for candidate de-registration for minor campaign finance violations. Article 88.1(5) of the draft code allowed for revocation of the full candidate list by the CEC if the number of candidates in at least one district list fell below three. The first Joint Opinion recommended that de-registration be allowed only as an exceptional measure for the most serious violations of the law.
