SINGAPORE – From July 3 to July 7, Singaporeans will be able to watch political candidates speak during prime time on television, with the special broadcasts arranged for the various constituencies scheduled to run from 7pm on these days.
Two party political broadcasts will also be aired during this general election, on July 2 and on July 9, which is Cooling-Off Day.
These party political broadcasts are among the exceptions to the prohibition of campaign activities on the day, which is meant for voters to think about their choice.
With large physical rallies disallowed during GE2020, in line with health advisories to curb the spread of the contagious coronavirus, the political broadcasts on national TV have taken on an added significance for candidates to get their message across.
In particular, the Government has arranged for special constituency political broadcasts, so all candidates have a chance to address voters on TV.
For these constituency-based broadcasts, each candidate will get three minutes to speak.
