    Source one basicly criticizes the idea of how liberal elections function however with closer inspection it can be seen that the author of the source is also hinting that the root of the problem is liberalism itself he then goes on to state a solution to his apparent problem with the liberal system which enforces the aspect of freedom of the individual above that of government power. One of these such problems is the idea that intelligent people are not normally chosen from elections, the reason for this is that these intelligent people are not common and are often not given the chance to run as a candidate. The other problem is that the common people may not even recognise one of these geniuses if they did run as a candidate for an election,…

    According to John H. Fund in Stealing Elections: How Voter Fraud Threatens Our Democracy, voting irregularities cover a lengthy history dating back to the infancy of our nation (8). As detailed by William Bird in Vote: The Machinery of Democracy, whether it was in the earliest elections that were conducted by a voice vote, on hand-written paper ballots (votes), or on party tickets, which only listed the names from one political faction, instead of two or three, there have been frequent attempts to take advantage of the voting system in place (1). Whereas today, when an election is imminent and the airways are filled with candidate endorsements, the subject of voter identification usually steps into the public eye. Although a few states passed…

    The first election occurred many centuries ago. The idea of holding an election came about because of an overwhelming desire of human nature to make the choice. When thinking about it, one can say that the process of carrying out a democratic election has improved over the years. This seems to be true because, today we have publicity. It is extremely easy for a citizen to receive full information about the candidate, but the advertising can be confusing. Moreover, today people are more familiar with their rights and obligations they have, as well as they are willing to rule the sway of their and the countries’ destinies. Though, at the same time, the stated above is rather controversial, because the more developed humans get, the more immoral, they appear to be.…

    As an intricate and complex institution within our society, America’s system of government has been a source of both upset and major progression in the history of America. As with most major institutions in our society that involve any consequences directly affecting individuals’ lives and rights, the political system ebbs and flows in both beneficial and detrimental ways. When it comes to the process and outcomes of policies, decision-making, and leadership within the government, however, the American electoral system proves to be among the most scrutinized and criticized aspects of government today.…

    In an election in a small town an Election Official provides a Registration Clerk with a Registration List of all the individual registered in the town to vot. As well the Election Official provides an Election Scrutineer with a set of official election policies and procedures. Voters enter the voting location and register with the Registration Clerk. The Registration Clerk asks the voters for their name and address and checks if they are eligible to vote. If they are the clerk crosses their name off the registration list and provides the voter with a voting ballot. The voter then goes to a private booth to complete the ballot. When completed they deposit the vote in the ballot box. After the voting period is over (usually one day) the Registration Clerk closes the voting location and provides the list of who has voted to the Election Official. When the voting is finished the votes are taken out of the ballot box by the Counting Clerk and carefully checked for validity. Ballots that are not completed correctly are marked as invalid (also called "donkey votes") and ignored. The Counting Clerk now manually counts the votes in groups of fifty, this is so the votes can be recounted easily. After counting each group of fifty, the Counting Clerk records the total on a piece of paper, to be kept with the group of votes, and enters the details into a spreadsheet on a personal computer. The Counting Clerk repeats this until all votes are counted. At the completion of counting the Counting Clerk saves the spreadsheet and provides the results to the Election Official who ordered the election (on a CD-ROM). The whole process is scrutinised (that means watched over or checked) by an Election Ccrutineer. Their job is to determine that the election is undertaken honestly and fairly following the required guidelines, policies, and procedures provided by the Election Official. At the end of the election the Election Scrutineer provides a verdict to the…

The submission of results marks the end of the election process, thereby paving way for the formation of the new…
