Really? Did you read your proprietary lease and found the exact item where such a restriction is stipulated?
As ST told you, you may mail it to the shareholders, do what politician do by standing outside the elevators in the lobby or mailboxes and meet residents or post your own flyer on bulletin boards if one or several are available throughout the buildng.
You may enlist some neighbors who may be willing to spread the voice on your ideas for the board, etc., invite people to your apartment or meet people over the laundry room.
Finally, have a good presentation for the night of the elections so that co-shareholders know why you are running, what attributes or behaviors characterize you as a team player, effective delegator or good collaborator. Remember 1/4 of the people are leaders; 1/2 collaborators and 1/4 empathizers. You need a good blend on the board to have an effective board.
Good luck on election night!

Thanks for feedback.
To reply to one question, it is the house ruler that prohibit the distribution of any materials directly, e.g. without going through the US Mails.
In addition, those running for public office are not permitted to distribute items on premises.
As a matter of fact, some politicians visited our outdoor pool area a few years ago and the residents complained. Thus, there are no more solicitations at the pool.
Yes, there is a bulletin board where residents may place postings.
And for further clarification, the existing board does not solicit in the lobby, mailroom, hallways, etc., or via materials under doors ... and as far as I know, the existing board has never used public handouts or materials under the door. So, there is no precedent to use as leverage.
The board's mantra seems to be "quality of life" is paramount. Thus, outdoor athletic court lights are deactivated at 10 PM, and there is no construction of any type permitted in any unit, or even in the common areas of the building or property, outside of Mon. to Fri, 9 AM to 5 PM. These no-noise restrictions are imposed on the eve of religious holidays.
