No, in most countries it works fine without it.
You should see the heavily armed atmosphere at my place, tomorrow being the general elections for us. I live in the World’s Largest Democracy.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen police or any security when I voting. Unless the the old lady that checks your ID counts.
Welcome to the World’s Largest Democracy !!!
World’s Largest Democracy.
By headcount. The US is still the largest by mass.
Last time I checked, Canada is larger than the US and still a democracy
they cheat though with tim hortons and poutine.
As I love to say to my fellow Americans: “Land doesn’t vote.” It’s the mass of the people that matters.
Do you think Canada outweighs the US?
Well I’ve heard rumors that Utah and California has about equal amounts of votes, land doesn’t vore? Please tell me I’m wrong!
You’re wrong for the Senate, right for the house and electoral college. But for the Senate, representation is not based on population, so Wyoming for example has outsized influence.
What’s the population of the US ??
The real question is: what’s the average weight of us Americans.
He’s probably including the mass of the land.
It’s a joke on fat Americans
India? Yes. Well. Is it still a democracy? I think that perhaps the fact that the army is involved shows that it really isn’t anymore.
Thank you for sharing this report. Well, l actually fall in this list.
Precisely where l’m from.
Funny that people are calling it a democracy where people are voting for a person that kinda will maybe vote for one of two men but maybe not and then someone after the voting redraws the voting districts so the “right” one wins… How bad have I misunderstood the american voting system?
Means ??
I was thinking of the system in USA, which is not uncommonly called a democracy, but it feels weird to me as the voters are so far removed from the actual election of leadership. And as stated, I suspect I’ve missed some parts there. India on the other hand, as I suspect yo’re referring to (because I’ve heard “worlds largest democracy” about it earlier) I’m even more lost but still curious, are there much protests or other kind of upset gatherings around the elections?
In the past, yes. But now the paramilitary is brought in.
Ain’t a democratic election unless there’s a lottery option on the ballot.
When there are only two options and they both suck? Probably.
