		The mass of the campaigning effort is often concentrated on the small percentage of voters who remain uncommitted (swinging voters) rather than trying to convert the already loyal or traditional voters of other parties.
		Campaigning is not an exercise in democratic free speech.
		Campaigning does have many benefits for the nation, in that parties listen very closely to the needs of portions of the electorate (that portion called swinging voters or those in marginal seats).

		Unlike «public» electronic and print media «private» media, may start election campaigning upon registration of a candidate or a list of candidates (without waiting for the end of the registration period), with the corresponding propaganda materials to be broadcast or printed for a charge, but always on a contractual basis.
		Election campaigning at the federal level is conducted through the national electronic media and publications, at the regional level, through the corresponding divisions of the national electronic media and through regional electronic and print media.
		The lists of such electronic and print media are made up and published by election commissions on the recommendation of the federal and territorial bodies of executive power which formulate and implement the state policy vis-a-vis the mass media, not later than the tenth day after official publication of the decision to call the elections.

		Voters may be getting their information increasingly from electronic sources, but they will continue to register, turnout, and vote for candidates for the same reasons they always have -- because friends, neighbors, family members, and co-workers ask them to register, explain candidates' positions, and remind them to vote.
		Fourth, the campaign would be demonstrating its progressive adoption of new technology and its commitment to equal access and inclusion.
		The strategy of electronic distribution and traditional mobilization proposed here capitalizes on these advantages while ensuring that non-Net users are brought into the process and that the priority of the campaign stays on face-to-face campaigning.

		Nguyen did not campaign using a laptop computer (even though this is not illegal), but that other students using their own laptop computers (originally for non-voting purposes) made voting accessible on their own accord.
		Because there is no section of the bylaws preventing students from using laptop computers to campaign, his provision of a laptop when a friend of his wanted to vote was not in violation of the bylaws.

		He says the electronic communications systems offer ways to "attack someone in a spurious, sinister way." He wouldn't be surprised to see ads similar to the infamous Willie Horton spot from the 1988 campaignappear on the Internet.

		The Internet campaigns, for a moment, were frozen as well, but the Bush site defrosted with a vengeance and came back with an e-mail initiative that proved to be the most effective and impressive of the entire election, a digital echo of McCain's triumph, recalling this election's greatest Internet moment.

	Political Privacy and Online Politics: How E-Campaigning Threatens Voter Privacy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Disclosure of campaign donations of $200 or more to federal candidates, and to party committees and political action committees that support federal candidates is required by the Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA) in order to enable public scrutiny of the role money plays in elections (Center for Democracy and Technology, 1999a).
		For example, Political Marketing Services, a campaign consultancy, advertises its ability to target only voters who are likely to agree with a candidate's key issue positions, a technique it refers to as "voter isolation." Traditional data marketers have also recently begun to repackage their profiles for political campaign professionals.
		Campaign sites for candidates such as Jean Elliot Brown and John Ashcroft featured extensive privacy policies outlining what information was collected, how it was gathered, and how people could opt-out of receiving e-mail alerts.

	An Introduction to Activism on the Internet: Introduction
		There are many factors that make Internet attractive for campaigning: its transmission speed, its reach globally and locally to a enormous number of users, low publishing cost, and 24 hour access.
		This document is also not intended to endorse electronic campaigning tactics at the expense of other offline tactics.
		The notion of a centrally coordinated, traditional “campaign” should also be reexamined with respect to the emergence of large scale, even spontaneous, online collaborations that are not centrally or hierarchically organized.

		The EC report on voter engagement and media coverage of the general election earlier this year has concluded that electronic campaigning "did not play an integral role" in the national campaigns by the main political parties.
		One of the more successful electronic tactics used appears to have been DVDs sent out by the Labour Party, which were tailored towards individual constituencies and featured messages from the local candidate and from Prime Minister Tony Blair, according to the EC report.
		Yet plans for the introduction of electronic voting in time for the next general election are starting to look shaky: trials of the technology initially planned for 2006 have now been scrapped with no new date set.

		The network is open to people who work as campaigners in the fields of health or disability (and may be full-time or part-time, salaried or voluntary).

		Very few of the health campaigning organisations are completely transparent about the sources of their funding and how it is spent which leads to increasing suspicion of the extent of influence of the pharmaceutical industry.

		"The decree will allow presidential candidates to advertise themselves on television for longer than was permitted during the legislative election campaign period as long as it does not exceed 20 percent of a TV station's daily airtime," he said.
		The KPU and KPI earlier issued a joint decree for the legislative election campaign, permitting 24 political parties to place ads on television for a maximum of 10 slots of 30 seconds each per station per day.
		Bimo said the longer duration for advertising would be permitted as the July 5 election would be participated in by fewer contestants -- six pairings of presidential and vice presidential candidates.
