The Reform Party wants people to be able to run for office even if they don't live there.

The Reform Party wants to change the law. Currently, candidates must reside in the municipality. The Reform Party wants others to be able to run as well. For example, all Setos could run in Setomaa. But only local people can vote. Anti Haagas says that almost all parties want this. He believes that the people will ultimately decide. In Estonia, many people have multiple residences. People want to run in regions that are important to them. Parties do not require providing a false residence. The Reform Party wants to make the change before the elections. If this is not done, good procedure will not be followed. Haagas said that this is a topic for all parties. He thinks there is broad support for the change. If there is no support, there is no need to do it. Lauri Laats, a member of the Centre Party, said that in small communities this won't change anything. In large municipalities, however, it would make a difference. Laats thinks the proposal came too late. In February, the Tartu court ruled that candidates must live in the electoral district. The ETV show "Pealtnägija" showed that this is difficult to fulfill.
