"Democracy is the government of the people, by the people and for the people. " - Abraham Lincoln In a democracy, voting is a perpetual activity, essential for its functioning. It is the way to allow people to decide their collective destiny by themselves. ✅ Every ballot cast represents a voice shaping policy development and electing representatives who embody public sentiment. 🗳 Voting ensures that everyone has the same opportunity to hold a voice, regardless of background or status. ⚖ Legal voting shapes the future of democracy. This prevents authoritarianism and holds power chosen by men and women. In essence, voting is the lifeblood of democracy, ensuring a free and equitable society for generations to come. 💯 Vote for a better future, Vote for democracy!

🌟 Did you know? Democracy is a system of government where power is vested in the people, either directly or through elected representatives. 🗳️✨ In a democracy, citizens have the right to participate in decision-making processes, including voting on laws and electing leaders. The United States is a representative democracy and a republic, meaning that citizens elect officials to represent their interests and make decisions on their behalf, rather than having direct control over all decisions. In this system, power is derived from the people, and government officials are accountable to them. Understanding democracy helps us appreciate how our voices and votes contribute to shaping the direction of our government and society. Know your power! 🗳️ #Democracy #Civics101 #TheFUNManifesto

The erosion of public trust in democratic institutions and the perception of democracy as ineffective or corrupt could lead to a decline in the popularity of democratic systems if the commitment to democracy appears sham. This is because when citizens perceive that democratic institutions are not genuinely committed to democratic principles and are instead supporting authoritarian regimes, they may lose faith in the system and seek alternative models. #democratic institutions

From the Courts to the Polls: Who Are We Really Asking for Justice? It's shocking to realize that a significant number of our elected representatives, including Members of Legislative Assemblies (MLAs) and Members of Parliament (MPs), have criminal charges against them. Yet, these are the same individuals we turn to for justice, governance, and the rule of law. Isn't it time to question who holds power in our democracy? Shouldn't integrity be a non-negotiable criterion for leadership? #CleanPolitics #Accountability #Democracy #JusticeForAll

Are We Really That Divided? A Closer Look at Majority Vote and National Unity In my latest essay, I explore a crucial question: when a nation is divided, but the majority vote determines the outcome, does this mean we're truly fractured? I dive into the complexities of electoral systems, examining how even a close election result reflects both the unity and fragmentation inherent in our democracy. While political polarization often steals the spotlight, I argue that the ability to form a majority coalition, despite deep differences, showcases the resilience of democratic institutions. This piece sheds light on how the clash of ideas and values is a cornerstone of our democratic process, ultimately strengthening our national cohesion. Read more to discover how majority rule might not mean unanimous agreement but speaks to the broader health of our democratic system. #Democracy #ElectoralProcess #PoliticalPolarization #MajorityVote #NationalUnity

Disavow: to deny responsibility for or repudiate, to refuse to acknowledge or accept. A frequent technique in the political grifter playbook.
