Special constituency broadcasts included in preliminary campaigning guidelines for GE during Covid-19

Under the preliminary campaigning guidelines, physical campaigning will be restricted and subject to safe distancing. On Nomination Day, supporters will not be allowed to enter or gather near Nomination Centres. Entry into Nomination Centres will be only for candidates; their proposers, seconders and assentors; and accredited media personnel. The proceedings will be covered live on national TV.

As large gatherings are not allowed under prevailing MOH guidelines, police permits will not be granted for any election meetings, including rallies and gatherings on Counting Night by supporters waiting for the election results. These are special, one-off arrangements in view of the Covid-19 situation, said the ELD. Further details will be available after the Writ of Election is issued. As per the previous GE, there will also be two Party Political Broadcasts, aired on 19 TV and radio channels.
