It is not only for the nominee but also for the voting body.
When someone other than a fellow voter is looking at you
expectantly, people tend to act differently. [Try stuffing
a camera in someones face and see if you can spot behaviour
changes.]
In a sense this is influencing the voting body, whether positive
or negative doesn't matter, it's inappropiate IMO.
