Communist Party & Election Law

The Communist Party has proposed an addition to the Election Law to put a stop to the continued violations of the law. The party seeks to add a new article (78A) to the current law. This article would stipulate that, once the date for an election is set, the holding of public functions, financed directly or indirectly by the regional government, would be prohibited. Members of the regional government would not be allowed to participate in inaugurations and presentations of new projects during this period. This would effectively stop Jardim's practice of using official ceremonies as party-political rallies.

Jardim's Party, the PSD, has in turn drafted a resolution to shut down the National Commission of Elections as well as the Press Regulation Entity (ERC).
