explain any three conditions which make the election process more democratic.
in order to have the election process more democratic there are few pre-requisites like:a. one vote, one value: to choose/elect the representative everyone must have one note with equal value. this is to avoid any type of conflicting situation.b. regular election: there should be regular elections in every democratic country so that people have their choice at regular intervals.c. free and fair election: in order to ensure a fair chance to the people there should be a free and fair election in every democratic country.d. political competition: in order to have democratic election parties, candidates should be free to contest elections and should offer some real choice to the voters.
Our democratic system was originally setup to involve as many parties as possible. In fact, George Washington warned in his farewell address about the establishment of parties at all and advised that they not be formed. In practice, however, two parties were able to dominate by the mid-19th century.   

  

Today, the most viable option for third parties exist in states that allow candidates to run on multiple party tickets. A great example of this is the Working Families party in New York State. The Working Families party nominates candidates, usually on the democratic line, who can be voted for under the Working Families ticket instead of Democratic -- to give the politicians the message that they care about social issues for working families. The party is able to exert significant influence by refusing to endorse candidates who do not stand up for working families -- and has cost several candidates their seats because of their failure to earn the party's endorsement.   

  

Note that these third parties have primaries of their own that are sanctioned by the state.   

  

That said, parties like this are the ones paving the way towards BALLOT REFORM, which if instituted would open up the field to more parties who can gain real influence. Vermont or New Hampshire are seen as the states most likely to institute this first. people do vote, regardless if they cast a ballot. silence can be thought of as a vote. the reason i say this is that i chose not to vote out of no confidence for the ballot. i would either have voted for something in which i did not believe, or i couldn't "thrown away" with a 3rd party vote, in which i still didn't believe.there is no write in option for "no confidence," and interestingly, if enough people voted this way, the way american voting works, would require either the candidates to all be thrown out, and a new set of candidates, or the government would make their own choice, at which point democracy would be dead. if we look at voting in this manner, it most certainly is compulsory. however, america has an odd obsession of thinking that the common man's vote for president actually matters. local votes will influence politics for a person far more than a presidential vote ever will. this is why many localities have gerrymandering, in order to control the constituency and votes.i personally do not believe my vote will ever make a difference, as it never has in any political election. besides, perpetuating the idea that the common man isn't controlled by our plutocratic corporatist "democracy" is silly, but people will keep on voting and believing that they matter, or are heard. perhaps my view is cynical and pessimistic. i see no reason to change it.c'est la vie. the left prefers the traditional way of winning elections, getting the most votes. unit 1 study guide  section 1: voting methods \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ key concepts: plurality method: the candidate with the most votes wins the election majority method: the candidate with more than half of the votes wins (51%) ceiling function: a symbol used to signify rounding up the number within the bracket preference table: a table displaying the ranking of candidates borda count method: candidates are ranked and then given points according to their rankings plurality with elimination: if there is not a majority winner in the original problem, the  candidate with the least amount of first place votes is eliminated causing the other candidates  within the table to shi hey. this new generation can just get in line and wait your turn. my generation is still waiting for these exact same changes promised 30 years ago!

jimmy carter and a democratic administration are pledged to bring about the changes we need:

putting limits on how much the doctors and the hospitals can gouge medicare and medicaid and the public. nobody should have to pay $700 a day for a hospital room or $65 to walk into a doctor's office.

http://www.4president.org/brochures/cart... there is already enough evidence to either require another election in some states (which there may not be time for) or require the state party convention (which are often controlled by republicans) to make a decision due to the issues laid out in the legal arguments. trump's team has very valid points and evidence to back up those points. legal process is necessary for legitimacy, but any judge who strictly interprets the law will side with trump’s team. due to the media’s propaganda campaign, i’m sure many judges would be concerned about the ramifications of the legal outcome, but ultimately they have to do their job as arbiters of the law. so trump should win his lawsuits even if the supreme court has to make the final decision. republicans are likely, but not guaranteed to be loyal to their party. trump will likely win in the end... either way, as of now no votes have been certified. if we examine those states that have generally finished their vote counts and have no legal contest at the moment then the current electoral vote count would be 227 biden vs 229 trump. so technically trump is currently winning even if the mainstream media wants to brainwash you into believing something else. Some of the reasons include;

1. Socio Political system- Socio recurring coups and destabilization of the Pakistan's government and the nation as a whole has posed a challenge in formation of political parties.

2. High levels of illetracy- Developed nations are politically informed and therefore make clear decisions on matters of importance.In Pakistan there are high levels o illetracy and therefore the citizens lack an understanding of their political rights.

3. Self imposed leaders- The leaders make laws that favour them and therefore killing democracy.

4. Ethnicity-Pakistan's politics is based on ethnicity.Ethnic politics tend to divide a country as decisions are based on ethnic grounds rather than on ideologies.

5. Inefficiency of political parties-Political parties in Pakistan have a weak political system and therefore they are not convincing to the citizens.

6. Inherited politics-Leadership is passed through generations in Pakistan and this denies other new people with new ideas from leading the country. hi maddie,the purpose of any manipulation is to convince another person that their previously held beliefs are incorrect. one example of a way to manipulate another person is through the practice of gaslighting. think of it as someone who continually turns down the lights in a room (turning down a gas lamp) but tells another person the light is constant, it's their perception or eyesight that is affected. the purpose of gaslighting is to convince another person that they are losing their sanity. how does this transform societal values? on a large scale, if you can convince a large number of people to change their values then society will inevitably shift in its core beliefs and practices. a positive example of this is the icelandic women's protest in 1975 when every woman in the country went on strike for one day. after this protest, women were given equal wages and equal rights under the law. though this strike was not manipulation but civil rights protest, you can see the impact of change on societal values. think about efforts to take away civil rights for one specific group of people: is the language used as a weapon? is it manipulative? deceptive? how would that impact independence and personal identities? if your civil rights were taken away, say your right to vote because of another person's manipulative argument, would you feel less independent? would you feel as though your voice mattered? would you feel more valued by society or less valued by society?good luck with your homework!jessica allow private companies to compete with all govenrment services. its that simple.

when a govenrment monopoly is in place, there is no reason or mechanism for the corruption to go away.

in a free market, corruption leads to losses, so it provides incentive for the business to fire and prosecute those who are corrupt.

take the government monopoly on police protection for example. what happens to police who do not respond to a robbery? what happens to reports of police beatings and theft? often nothing. there is no incentive for anything to be done. on the other hand, in a free market, every instance would be investigated and reparations paid for mistakes, else competition will have a chance of providing the service instead.

also consider this. government programs benefit from losses. it allows them to request budget increases, or power increases. inefficiency is rewarded in government, the opposite of what is rewarded in a free market. saying that, corruption assists government as it helps to drive up costs of operation.

*corruption in society is a problem? society, or the people do not have the power to imprison you, or tax you. you are not forced to fund private citizens who are 'corrupt'. electoral college. trump lost the popular vote. out votes don’t matter because of the electoral college. he should have never won in the first place and the only way we can get him out is if the blue voter turnout is high enough to swing the electoral vote in favor of biden
