Question

what are laws or rules or regulations are made for candidates during the campaign?​

Answer 1

$\large{\bf{\purple{\underline{\underline{Hi....!! }}}}}$

• Political campaign laws have been enacted to ensure fair elections and to prevent misleading or false information from being given to voters. Though federal and state laws that govern campaign financing dominate the headlines, there are a host of state laws that a candidate must follow during a campaign. A candidate who violates campaign laws risks criminal prosecution or the FORFEITURE of the public office.

• Political campaigns are protected by the FIRST AMENDMENT, but FREEDOM OF SPEECH is not unlimited. For example, state laws prohibit candidates from using the term "reelect" in campaign signs and literature if the person is not the incumbent of that office. Candidates are also barred from making "false claims of support" that falsely state or imply the endorsement of a political party or an organization. Moreover, a candidate cannot state in printed campaign literature that specific individuals endorse the candidate without first obtaining written permission from those individuals. All of these laws speak to fraudulent MISREPRESENTATION by a candidate.
