Code Electoral

This Code of Conduct is designed to assist election administrators by providing general guidelines for their work. Election administrators face so many different circumstances and situations in their work that it would be impractical to attempt to make a firm rule for every possible situation. Rather, each person or organization using this Code of Conduct should apply it flexibly, together with good common sense, to meet the requirements of each particular situation. Part One The Functions of an Election Administration This Part includes a brief summary of the purpose, functions, objectives and fundamental ethical principles of election administration. Part Two Guidelines for Election Administration This Part includes an expanded statement of each of the fundamental ethical principles which form the basis of election administration, with an explanation and detailed guidelines to give effect to that principle. --Publisher's description p. 5.
