Sun symbolizes Hope, Wisdom and Honesty - Savior

Explanation:

The semiotics of electoral posters and banners convey the ideas, themes and aims of the political party. During the campaign, the major concern of the party is to represent a candidate in such a way that it attracts the voters.

The candidate needs to reach and connect to the mass in order to win an election. The symbolic meaning of Sun shining behind the candidate signifies his honesty, wisdom and above all hope. Sun rays provides a halo effect to the candidate who looks like a Savior of the masses. Thus, improving the chances of winning an election.
