"Naturally, I will not take part in the election. I just watch the election as a friend of the people who abandoned the city. As an ordinary citizen, I hope that the election can be fair and just, and that I can choose a new city leader who can serve the people." Fang Tianxing said without concession.
Wu Secretary disdain of cold hum, he said to everyone: "everyone go back."
At this time, the young master of the Jiang family immediately came up to secretary Wu and said, "the special envoy has come all the way. Why don't you come to my house and have a rest“
Secretary Wu nodded and waved his hand. The guards around him lined up and gave him a way, showing great pomp. Secretary Wu left with a smile, leaving only a figure behind for Fang Tianxing.
The masses around Fang Tianxing are very worried about this election. For ordinary people like them, they will always be led and ruled by others. But many times, they are not elected at all. It's rare to be elected, but it doesn't mean that it's an opportunity to change their own destiny.
In theory, elections can represent the opinions of the vast majority of people, but they are not so in reality. Many times things that look good change in reality. The people don't know the candidates at all, but they are given the right to participate in politics because of the election, but they don't know the candidates at all. This requires candidates to introduce themselves, which is reasonable, so that we can see what kind of people the candidates are. However, candidates who introduce themselves will unconsciously canvass for votes and call on everyone to choose themselves, which is unfair.
Elections have to be controlled, and officials can identify candidates. Because most people has the final say in choosing the number of votes. Of course, this is not a bad system, but sometimes it is not necessarily good. For example, if most people in the group make wrong decisions, it is likely to drag the whole group into the abyss.
Canvassing is not the same as self introduction. What is elected by canvassing is actors. What is elected by oneself according to the candidate's ruling policy is called election. Since it is a tool, it naturally has its use value. Election enables the upper class to grasp and understand people's thoughts more firmly, so that they can achieve their will more efficiently. As a result, the grassroots people have dispelled their discontent, and the results are very happy.
It's a good thing to let the public know about the candidates during the election campaign. However, it's also reduced to canvassing. Whoever has money, who can control the media, and who can make a lot of people know themselves, is great. Therefore, this kind of election is like casting actors and people who talk on paper.
Fang Tianxing said to everyone, "how is the election mechanism formulated and what conditions are met before they can be determined as candidates. Elections often need canvassing. In the end, canvassing is to find people and vote for themselves. I don't want the abandoned city to become such a disgusting place. I hope you can be independent, don't be bewitched by other people's petty interests, and choose people who really care for the people“
There are many people who support Fang Tianxing, but many of them are not strong willed and have no deep understanding of the situation. Before the selection, many big families made rich promises, and many people chose to follow the manipulation of those people for immediate interests.
Every time the leader of the team is elected, those candidates always make a big speech in order to win the support of the people. And the support of the people is the use of the right to vote. The people can vote through the candidates' speeches and the things they promise to do to the people, and confirm the president who will be useful to you and the country. This is the obvious use.
The leader is elected, so he gains the trust of the people by showing himself. At this time, in order to guarantee his vote, he must guarantee his role to the people, so that he can be elected.
The people don't understand the candidates, and most of the ordinary people don't understand politics. It should be that most people in the world don't understand politics, and those who know how to govern the country are those who are well-educated and have enough ruling experience. It's like a neighbor telling you that you study medicine and he studies music, but few people can learn real politics.
However, now more laymen who don't understand have the right to do these things. What they can see is only the media reports, but not the real life of the candidates. How can they vote? Another canvassing, then the leadership will be controlled by a group of actors, no one will do anything and everyone will be like a mouth gun.
Strictly speaking, bribery is against the law, and canvassing can only be carried out in some ways within the regulations, so as to ensure the fairness of rich and poor candidates. In most countries, elections are conducted by individuals, so they have to spend their own money or invest. Under this premise, if the norms are too strict, the election can not go on.
But this is only the case in other places. China did not need the tool of election before, because China has its own social mechanism, which has been running for more than a thousand years. The complicated relationship firmly controls every aspect of a Chinese's life. Whether you are against it, support it, or ignore it, it's a response based on it. It's there, you can't treat it as not. With it, the upper class can achieve the same goal as the western countries.
This is still good. If a candidate wins by 99 to 100, but after winning, he only cares for the interests of the people who choose him. If other people want to rebel, it is a split of the country.
If there is a referendum, it will not necessarily represent the main demands of every piece of land. For example, on the issue of black slaves, if there is a referendum, the north will oppose it and the South will support it. If there are more people in the north than in the south, the bill will be repealed, but it is not necessarily conducive to the economic development of the south.
Therefore, local election has become the most feasible solution, that is, a force with similar situation will vote for the winner according to the total population. Of course, there will be unfairness and problems, so there will be the civil war. But generally speaking, this system is helpful to limit the unlimited expansion of public opinion of a large population force, and also limit the problems that may arise in the election.
At this time, many people went to select candidates, and the original dignitaries had already begun canvassing for votes, so that the seed players in their families could become candidates and participate in the election. However, those who can compete for the candidates are all former officials, and their desire for power makes them unwilling to give up. Before, they had been domineering, and the people dared not speak up. This time, they are in the top position again, and it is hard to say what will change.
To be a candidate for the city leader, you need to meet three conditions. One is a local born person with no criminal record and the support of at least 500 voters. Now those people are working hard to rebuild the city with the help of the Galactic Federation. They want to seize the opportunity and get the biggest cake.
