A new paper is here. It says people in Cyprus spent too much money. This was in old elections. Now, new elections are coming. The paper makes people worry. Many people did not follow money rules.
The paper looked at old votes. It found winners spent more money. They could not spend that much. Some mayors spent much more. They had a money limit. They spent more than the limit.
People found ways to spend more. They did not tell all costs. Friends paid for big parties. This hid the money. Other people paid for ads. This helped them not follow rules.
People want to win. The rules are not strong. They only look at ads. They do not look at other costs. So, many costs are not watched. This is a problem.
