Mikk Saar is an EKRE candidate. He wanted to distribute paper advertisements in a shopping center. The security guard said no. Another party, the Reform Party, was allowed to distribute. Mikk thought this was unfair.
Mikk filed a complaint. He wanted the commission to give an assessment. The commission said no. The law states that advertising is prohibited only at polling stations.
Mikk went to the Supreme Court. He wanted the commission's decision to be overturned. The Supreme Court said no. The court stated that private property has the right to prohibit advertising. If voting takes place on private property, it cannot make things easier for one party than another.
The court said this was not the commission's fault. The commission determines polling stations. Private property may prohibit advertising. If private property violates the law, a party may receive compensation.
