Also, this new legislative document took over a series of offences stated, until its entrance into force, by many special laws, grouping them in its content. Under this scope was registered the introduction in the new Criminal Code of the electoral offences — offences which until the 1st of February 2014 were stated by the special laws to which we shall refer in this paper.
