Annotation: The article describes the issues of the importance of family in the aspect of the implementation of active and passive electoral rights. The purpose of the article is to highlight the influence of the family and family status of the candidate on the forming of his image, taking into account the family when filing an application for consent to run, the use of family nomination as one of the election technologies, family values as a necessary component for the forming of political party programs, as well as taking into account family traditions to combat youth absenteeism in the electoral process.
