It would be encouraging to see actual consequences for this sort of thing, even for an anarchist. That a political system should be corrupt is no surprise, but watching the powerful gleefully get away with it while the press proclaims that "there is no evidence" of the corruption is -- probably intentionally -- disheartening. For those who believe that government can be a positive good, it is even more important to see consequences for this.

Every time another vote-rigging scheme is brought to light, we are assured that "it was not large enough to change the outcome." And that is true, of each little scheme. But the schemers don't limit themselves to one scheme; they have many tried-and-true tricks in their bag, and will not hesitate to employ them all at once. This is especially true in close elections, where the outcome can be changed fairly easily. Election rigging is quite common, and hard to prove decisively -- which is why it is the global norm for "democracies". ---- G. Poulin
