Law No. 100/2025: New rules for electoral integrity and prevention of illegal influence
June 26, 2025
This document provides an analysis of the key provisions adopted: the expansion of the definition of electoral bribery to include the mere promise of benefits; harsher sanctions for those involved in manipulating votes; strict limits on funding from vulnerable or disproportionate sources; regulation of unauthorized campaigning; and the prohibition of charitable actions used for political image-building. The law also strengthens democratic protection tools against extremism, introduces traceability in political party structures and activity, and accelerates judicial proceedings related to electoral corruption cases.
