  Article 36- Political Organizations  
36.1 Political Organizations  
  A political association is any organized body of people professing a common belief system who wish to participate in the democratic process either in the influence of debate and/or the selection of candidates. The Charter is founded on the principle that all citizens have the right of association and to participate in the political process.  
36.2 Registered political association  
  To issue advertisements or statements into the public arena in an effort to influence public debate, or to represent alternative policies and candidates for election, a political association must be registered. To practice political activities without a proper registration authority is a crime.  
36.3 Registration application  
  As part of the proper registration and accreditation of a political association must include with its application a complete copy of its Charter, register of assets and liabilities, trustee and powers of authority over funds of the political association. In addition, the political association must be able to demonstrate having at least 10,000 paid-up members for national registration, 1,000 paid-up members for state registration and 100 members for local registration  
36.4 Right decline/deregister a political association  
  Where as part of the registration application is deemed a proposed political association is for the sole and personal financial benefit of the founders with due benefit and return to its followers, this Charter gives the appropriate statutory authorities the right to decline and/or deregister a political association.
