Election Rules

- No campaign material may be distributed in advance of the time and date of the start of campaigning. (9am Monday 21st March)

- Secret facebook groups set up before campaigning begins will contain no more than 20 members and shall remain secret until campaigning begins. The deputy returning officer (Tom Dolton) is required to be invited to any campaign groups that are set up to ensure compliance with these rules.

- Posters/any other publicity material should only be attached to Union House walls and walls along the Street.

- All publicity material must be attached to walls with sellotape/another non-marking material.

- Banners may be hung from the railings but must be safely secured (using cable ties is a good idea). Make sure that you do not use water-based paint as it will run when it rains.

- Any material placed elsewhere must be done so with permission from UEA security/the appropriate person.

- Any material that is placed elsewhere without permission may be removed by UEA security, and a fine may be incurred.

- The Union will post one A4 poster per candidate in one of the poster boxes in the Street or the Upper Walkway. Places in boxes will be randomly allocated.

- Printed materials are one of the focal points of most election campaigns and it is therefore important that they are used responsibly. Candidates must take care not to use text or images which are copyrighted. The Union will not reproduce any materials which infringe copyright, or support candidates should any legal action be taken against them as a result of their infringement. Candidates who are in doubt about the contents of their publicity should consult the Deputy Returning Officer before having their materials reproduced.

- Student staff and Officers of the Union are allowed to campaign on the behalf of a candidate however not while at work or using any tools given to them through their position in the Union.

- No candidate shall use the platform of student run media from the close of nominations through to the end of the elections (between 11th and 29th March). This includes publishing articles in concrete under their name & broadcasting on Livewire1350 (the hustings is the only exception to this).

- Candidates will not move/alter/remove any publicity of any other candidate.

- If any publicity materials of high value are removed then it will be at the deputy returning officers discretion whether or not this item should be included in the candidate’s budget.

- Candidates who are deemed to have spent over the budget allocated will be penalised at the discretion of the Deputy Returning Officer.

- Candidates who are running for both an NUS delegate position and an Officer role shall separate publicity materials according to the budget requirements. (eg. none of the £70 for officer elections is allowed to contain promotion for NUS delegate)

- In the event of a candidates removal from the election process the option to appeal is available. See www.ueastudent.com for full details.
