Question

Why is there no free and fair electoral competition in china and mexico?

Answer 1

There is no free and fair electoral competition in China because it is a communist country where power is monopolized by the Communist Party. Mexico is a democracy. ... The PRI has frequently won elections in Mexico through the use of unfair means and the other parties rarely get a chance to win the elections.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

A free and fair electoral competition is one where the contestants of different political parties participate in the election. There are no wrong means like booth capturing, threats, changing of polling results and others occur. The election is conducted in a free and fair manner under strict vigilance.

• In China, elections are regularly held after every 5 years. But only the members of the Chinese Communist party are allowed to contest. The government is always formed by the Communist Party. Hence the people of China have no serious say in the election; they are bound to choose the leader of the ruling party.

• In China, norms are made of the election procedure and take place accordingly, except that the people do not have an ultimate say in the election.

• Hence though the election takes place according to the norms, we cannot call China a democratic country
