Your question is better addressed to the CommunityDirector since she's in charge of elections, not TB.

BTW - if a non-candidate does do PMs (presuming it's allowed; it's not for candidates), they might want to make sure the person they're PMing actually agrees w/ them. I received a PM a few years back doing what you suggested - the problem was I didn't agree w/ it & the end result was that it cemented my decision not to vote for the person they were PMing about

Cheers.
