ON MAINTAINING THE PRISTINE CHARACTER OF ELECTIONS







As we watch the events in the US unfold, we wonder when the investigation would ever end. It has been two years already and all we read are texts, documents, pictures of people involved in the events. 

How long will it take to end the saga of the investigation into the prostitution of democratic processes? Hopefully it could end in our generation. 

But if you will look at the process, you'll find that it takes a rich country to be able to delve into the topic. You pay the investigators, the lawyers, you xerox voluminous materials and pay fares to transport documents and people Whew!

When do we ever reach that level of meticulous analysis of political issues? How long will it take for us to have enough budget to analyze cheating in the elections, and give justice to the person who has been victimized?
