English term or phrase: candidates for office
Irgendwie hab ich mich an dem Satz wirr gelesen und frage mich: WAS ist hier mit candidates for office....gemeint?

Es geht um Bestechungen etc:

Under the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, no person may offer or make any payments or give gifts or favors of any value to any foreign government official or politician (including political parties or candidates for office or third-party intermediaries who can transfer the gift), or to a member of their staff, in exchange for or in an effort to obtain favorable business treatment for the Company or any other person, or to affect any government decision.
