About the Jersey Electoral Authority
Elections are overseen by the Jersey Electoral Authority (the JEA), which acts as a politically neutral and independent arbiter to determine candidate disputes and complaints.
The remit of the JEA also includes addressing any conduct issues amongst candidates and overseeing their election expenditures; and it has responsibilities in setting the nomination period for elections to the States Assembly. The JEA operates in accordance with the Elections (Jersey) Law 2002.
The JEA was established in 2022 in response to recommendations contained within the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association (CPA) Electoral Observer’s Mission Report published after the 2018 election.
