Guidlines for Candidates Appearing on Stage:
Before the election, candidates may not appear on stage at any time during a general assembly unless it is part of the electoral process. Exceptions are:
1. If the candidate is the only delegate from their State, they may appear in roll call.
2. If they are receiving a personal award.
3. Should That’s Entertainment occur prior to the election, candidates may audition and participate if chosen.
If a candidate meets one of these exceptions, they may not use the opportunity to campaign from the stage. Doing so may be grounds for disqualification. After the elections, a former candidate may appear on stage at any event.
Campaign Budget: Candidates may not spend over $50 on campaign materials. Candidates must keep all receipts for campaign materials and turn them in to the NJCL Parliamentarian at the end of the Nominations Committee Meeting. All donated items must be budgeted at their standard retail price. NJCL will set a standard price for donated copies, both black & white and color. The cost will be $0.08 for black & white and $0.15 for color copies. These are average costs, if your copies cost you less, you must provide a reciept.
Failure to comply with the campaigning regulations, which are outlined above and have been communicated to the candidates by the Parliamentarian, will result in disqualification. The NJCL Parliamentarian and the National Committee have the authority to dispose of campaign materials which violate regulations or which are determined inappropriate/harmful in any way.
