Sinopsis
Excerpt from An Election Guide: Rules for the Conduct and Management of Elections in England and Wales, Under the Corrupt Practices Act, 1883
The new law starts from the principle that indis criminate and uncontrolled expenditure is the main source Of electoral corruption. Its aim throughout is not merely to prevent expenditure for colourable or corrupt objects, but to impose a rigid limit upon the amount which may lawfully be spent for any purpose whatever connected with the conduct or management Of an election. TO ensure the possibility Of success it was necessary to vest the exclusive power of spending money for or on behalf of the candidate in a single responsible person, whose name and address should be advertised to the whole constitu ency, who should be a necessary party to every contract entered into or payment made from the beginning to the end of the contest, who should be bound to keep written evidence of every penny spent, and who should, after the election was over, be re quired to transmit to the returning officer, for pub lication to the world, a detailed account Of the candi date's expenditure.
