Greetings!
One of the interesting things is politics, although people call or regard it as a dirty game, to me it's more of an interesting game than what any other person can name it. There's no doubt about the dirty part of politics as it's seen by all how politicians kill just to win elections even when they are not the right choice of the people, but even at that, I always see politics as an interesting game being played by those who are masters of it.
Another thing I would like to slate here before I continue with this write up is that, there can be no politics without democracy which is widely referred to as the government of the people, by the people and for the people. What is meant by me here is that politics and its processes which include election can only be played and practiced under democracy.
Having said so much about politics and for the sake of time, I would like to delve into the topic of the prompt before me which is all about, “voting your choice.”
Well, one thing that's difficult in my own part of the world is that to vote one choice is not actually the problem, the problem is that of one's vote not counting. I have been voting for about two decades now in my country's election and don't let me lie to you, I have been voting the supposed best and the right candidate of my choice, but the problem is that my vote has had no voice to speak for the right candidate as there's always manipulation here and there when it comes to the electoral processes in my country.
The funny thing about my nation's election is that every one is a culprit when it comes to election rigging and manipulation and the said right choice are not even exempted from the process of a bad electoral system as they would be all out to pay their way through on the election day.
There was a day I was asking myself who is the right choice to be our leader in this country? Till today, I have not found an answer to this question and the reason is that all those political office seekers in my country are just the same. All they know how to do best is to play politics, contest elections and assume office to start playing another form of politics for another election cycle, that's all.
So, voting for the right choice of candidates in my country might be kind of difficult due to the nature of those politicians as their nature alone can make it difficult for the voters to know who is the best among them.
Another issue here is that, our opinion about a bad candidate or right candidate might not be the same and by this, it would be kind of difficult to change another person's mind on who the right candidate is.
This is my entry to week 223, episode 01 of the weekly featured contest in the Hive learners community.
Thanks for reading.
