mnaser“Combine the campaign and voting period into one. It really confuses people when we start to use social media to compaign and then they found they could not vote yet, and by the time of the voting starts, many of them are distracted by other events. It is also very time consuming to have these two stages seperated.”14:22
mnaserI like this14:22
fungiintroduction of a separate campaigning period is very new, added just in the last two or three cycles14:25
fungiat the request of voters who felt they voted too soon while debate/q&a between the declared candidates was underway during the voting period14:26
fungiif we agree the confusion it adds is worse than the raised issues it was introduced to solve, we can of course choose to drop it again14:27
fungiwe do need at least some delay between the end of candidacy nominations and the start of polling, to allow the election officials to do their jobs (can't set up a poll without knowing who's going to be on it so work on that can't start early)14:28
fungibut that can be as little as a couple of business days14:29

fungii do agree that the concern that most voters vote as soon as they receive their ballots isn't really something to be solved by forcing them to wait through discussions they're just as likely to ignore anyway, so i'm not opposed to dropping the designated campaigning period14:31
fungior telling people to campaign during (and even before) the candidate nomination period. even if that means declaring their intent to run early,that shouldn't ideally be a problem14:32
fungibut i still want to hear from the people who asked to have the campaigning period added, to find out whether it had the effect they were looking for14:34
smcginnisI much prefer having the separate campaign period before actual election starts. That seems the only sensible way to at least try to have informed elections.15:51
