Resign-to-run laws are laws in several jurisdictions in democracies where a current office-holder cannot run for another office. ==Rationale and Advantages== * Campaigning may be time-consuming; campaigners may short-change their jobs while running for another office. * While campaigning, officeholders may attempt to (inappropriately) use resources from their current office for the campaign. This could include the officeholders' current staff. * An officeholder who aspires to a greater office may not work as hard in the current office as they might if they actually wanted the current office, and may take actions that make them attractive for the position they actually want. * An officeholder who does want to run for higher office may time their run to complete their tasks in their current office. An example of this is Rodney Glassman, 2010 candidate for U.S. Senate from Arizona, who delayed his formal announcement until the city's budget was completed.〔http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/valleyfever/2010/02/rodney_glassman_the_sole_poten.php〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Resign-to-run laws」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
