What I am saying is that no electoral system is perfect, the weighed ones are not and the absolutely proportional ones are not either.
Definitely no modern day electoral system is perfect and just can't be anywhere but if am to compare the electoral system of the US to that of my own country I'll very much appreciate the US system the more in terms of the level of transparency, somewhat fairness in the entire process by the electoral body. Something we are yet to see to experience in democracies like ours.
Sure. The US elections have really matured to a level that you could believe in the electoral process to a certain degree. I don't know if there were any form of vote buying or other electoral malpractices in the just concluded election, it isn't really as alarming and open as it is done in my country. The level at which politicians disrespect the democratic process of electing political officeholders is at the peak. If it was in my country, it would not have been smooth and rancour free like we witnessed the in the United States of America yesterday. Especially as the power was taken from the ruling party and incumbent president to another candidate belonging to an opposition party. Kudos to the electoral officers and the electorates for conducting a free and fair election.
Yes and no. If your country does not offer the basic guarantees we are talking about a completely different thing, but the comments here are about the process itself, not if there is actually fraud except for one thing, how resistant is a process to fraud.
The fact that all depends of a few swing states and to what seems to be a few swing counties makes it less fraud resistant.
Otherwise, is about representing accurately the will of the majority. In the recent election, the popular vote went to Trump so no question there. But it is not always the case.
