+## public Election::isRegisteredCandidate
+
+### Description    
+
+```php
+public Election->isRegisteredCandidate ( CondorcetPHP\Condorcet\Candidate|string $candidate [, bool $strictMode = true] ): bool
+```
+
+Check if a candidate is already taking part in the election.
+    
+
+##### **candidate:** *```CondorcetPHP\Condorcet\Candidate|string```*   
+Candidate object or candidate string name. String name works only if the strict mode is active.    
+
+
+##### **strictMode:** *```bool```*   
+Search comparison mode. In strict mode, candidate objects are compared strictly and a string input can't match anything.
+If strict mode is false, the comparison will be based on name.    
+
+
+### Return value:   
+
+*(```bool```)* True / False
