S.L. 350.21 Art. 6
Prohibition of broadcast of polls on the days immediately preceding polling 6.1. Some countries have regulations restricting the dissemination of poll results on the day or the immediate days preceding the election. As with the general prohibition of electoral activity on 'reflection day', the reasoning behind such rules is to enable the public to take a decision on their vote without external influences, such as the predicted results which opinion polls indicate. 6.2. It is therefore prohibited to broadcast the results of any of the above-mentioned polls that would identify a political party or a candidate or are in favour or against a referendum question from Monday immediately preceding polling day till the close of the polling booths.
