Abstract

The issue of criminal records in electoral law has long been one of the most discussed in society. However, it is important to remember that each case has its own characteristics and requires careful consideration. A pressing issue is the candidate’s obligation to indicate information about his criminal record in the application for consent to run. The article presents an analysis of judicial practice on refusal to register a candidate in case of non-compliance with the provisions of substantive law, which is enshrined in the current electoral legislation. The author comes to the conclusion that substantive law and the material legal relations regulated by it have a significant impact on the content of procedural law.
