I Want To Pay My Atna



This morning I had a moment of clarity. It was while driving down the street on the way to meet someone for coffee and breakfast: Democracy does not exist. Point.
me explain:
Suppose for a moment that there are only three parties at home: A, B and C. A tie between the three would mean that each party obtains a 33.33% of the votes to be distributed. That one of these parties as the winner by a wide margin that the party would get, say 40% of the vote. That means that 60% of voters disagree with the match winner. There is no democracy.

In Mexico we have not one but 5 games running for president of the republic. That dilutes the results further. Will the next president Mexico will have the support of the majority? No, only 38% of people who voted.
an hour ago, the IFE (Federal Electoral Institute) announced that it is not possible to present a winner because the difference in points between the first and second falls within the provisions as a margin of error. Interference tolerance, as if it were an engineering problem ... while I can only think that the problem is in the 4 in 10 people who did not vote.
We are in limbo ...
