dbo:abstract An election agent in elections in the United Kingdom, as well as some other similar political systems such as elections in India, is the person legally responsible for the conduct of a candidate's political campaign and to whom election material is sent by those running the election. In the United Kingdom, candidates may be their own election agent. The Electoral Commission provides periodic guidance for candidates and agents. In Canada and most of its provinces, an election agent is legally referred to as an official agent. Election agents are responsible for sanctioning all expenditure on the candidate's campaign, for maintaining the accuracy of and submitting to the returning officer the candidate's expenses and other documents, as well as deciding whether to contest the result of a count. Agents are also permitted to oversee the polling and counting of votes to ensure the accuracy and impartiality of the election, and may appoint polling and counting agents to assist them in those tasks. The number of polling and counting agents that can be appointed is determined by the returning officer of the election and they must be appointed by a set date laid out in the timetable of the election. Agents must usually have reached the age of majority and not be acting as a clerk or officer to the returning officer in the given election. If candidate do not nominate an agent, they are their own agent. The larger parties typically pay their election agents, and the role is gradually becoming a professional one, like the similar but not identical role of campaign manager in the United States. (en) Nelle elezioni nel Regno Unito, così come in alcuni altri sistemi politici simili come quello indiano, un agente elettorale è la persona legalmente responsabile della conduzione della campagna politica di un candidato e al quale viene inviato materiale elettorale da coloro che gestiscono le elezioni. Nelle elezioni nel Regno Unito un candidato può essere per se stesso un agente elettorale. La Commissione elettorale fornisce orientamenti periodici per candidati e agenti. In Canada e nella maggior parte delle province canadesi, un agente elettorale è legalmente indicato come agente ufficiale. Gli agenti elettorali sono responsabili della sanzione di tutte le spese per la campagna del candidato, del mantenimento dell'accuratezza e della presentazione al presidente di seggio delle spese e di altri documenti del candidato, nonché di decidere se contestare il risultato di un conteggio. Gli agenti sono inoltre autorizzati a supervisionare le votazioni e il conteggio dei voti per garantire l'accuratezza e l'imparzialità dell'elezione e possono nominare e per assisterli in questi compiti. Il numero di agenti elettorali e di conteggio che possono essere nominati è determinato dal presidente di seggio dell'elezione e devono essere nominati entro una data stabilita concordata nel calendario delle elezioni. Gli agenti devono di solito aver raggiunto la maggiore età e non agire come impiegati o funzionari del presidente di seggio nella data elezione. Se un candidato non nomina un agente, è se stesso il proprio agente. I partiti più grandi in genere pagano i loro agenti elettorali e il ruolo sta gradualmente diventando professionale poiché il ruolo simile (ma non equivalente) dei è presente negli Stati Uniti. (it)
