FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION AND ELECTORAL INTEGRITY: A PATH TO BE TRAVELED TOGETHER

How can the integrity of elections be protected without unnecessarily restricting the circulation of legitimate political information?

The text examines the potential effects of these measures on freedom of expression, access to information, and equal opportunities in electoral contests, especially given that paid promotion remains permitted by law.
