Practice question: Lawful and Prohibited Election Propaganda (RA 9006, as amended by RA 11207)

Multiple Choice Hard

Practice question

A supporter contracts for outdoor campaign advertisements donated to a candidate. The candidate refuses written acceptance, but the supporter exhibits them anyway, arguing that paying personally and calling the material a gift avoids RA 9006. The facts establish donated candidate advertising, not independent private-citizen issue advocacy. Which assessment is best?
  1. Private payment automatically eliminates all statutory conditions.
  2. Calling it a gift supplies written acceptance.
  3. Section 4.3 prohibits exhibition of the stipulated donated advertising without the required written acceptance.
  4. A supporter may sign as the candidate without authorization.
  5. The donor's popularity determines legality.
