False statements and misrepresentation by politicians to be electoral fraud
It is currently only counts as electoral fraud if a party makes a false statement about the character of a candidate.
Nobody is held to account for misrepresenting policies and outcomes in elections which is much more dangerous, leading people to vote based on false information.
Examples of this include:
The Vote Leave campaign claiming to spend £350 million a week on the NHS which was quickly denied the morning after the referendum.
Liberal Democrats wanting to rid students of tuition fees, but in a coalition government put fees up to £9000 a year.
