Special editions
On days of national elections (general elections for the House of Representatives or regular elections for the House of Councillors), political campaigning is restricted by national election laws for 24 hours before the closing of polls and ''Nichiyō Tōron'' is not broadcast in its usual slot. On days of by-elections for the national Diet or the unified local elections, ''Nichiyō Tōron'' also generally avoids presenting partisan positions by inviting non-politicians. In the legal campaigning period before a national election, ''Nichiyō Tōron'' sometimes takes the '' NHK Special'' 9 p.m. slot or airs on Monday night after an election. On election night, the ''Nichiyō Tōron'' host anchors a special programme with all party leaders relayed from their election headquarters. The first ''Nichiyō Tōron'' of a new year usually invites party presidents – or another leading politician where the party president is prime minister, namely the secretary general of the party or the vice prime minister.References
