Everything about Nomination totally explained
Nomination is part of the process of selecting a
candidate for either
election to an
office, or the bestowing of an honor or
award.
In the context of elections for
public office, a candidate who has been selected by a
political party is normally said to be the
nominee of that party. The party's selection (that is, the nomination) is typically accomplished either based on one or more
primary elections or by means of a
political party convention or
caucus, according to the rules of the party and any applicable election
laws.
Normally, the nominee of a recognized political party is entitled to appear on the
general election ballot. Candidates who are unaffiliated with any political party are typically required to submit a nominating
petition in order to gain
ballot access.
Candidate comes from the
Latin word "candida" (white). In
Ancient Rome, people running for political office would often wear
togas chalked and bleached to be bright white. Such garments would be worn by candidates at
speeches,
debates,
conventions, and other
public functions.
