If you use social media, do not post messages on election day that could breach these rules. The Commission recommends candidates and parties temporarily deactivate
their Facebook campaign pages to avoid the risk of supporters committing an offence by posting on your page. For other forms of social media where others can post
comments the Commission recommends that where possible security settings are changed so that other people cannot post messages before 7pm on election day.
Posts on social media that are not connected in any way with the election can of course be posted on election day.
