Omnibus Election Code

The Omnibus Election Code is the primary law governing elections in the Philippines, with provisions that prohibit government contractors from making political donations and regulate campaign financing. As of 2025, the Code is considered largely outdated by the European Union, prompting the Commission on Elections (Comelec) to issue new rules and resolutions to address modern electoral issues. Recent investigations by Comelec involve probing contractors and officials for alleged violations, particularly concerning illegal campaign donations linked to government projects.
