Over the weekend we saw elections in Georgia and Japan.
Independent observers did not believe the elections in Georgia was free or fair. Unsurprisingly the pro-russian party in government 'won' the election. See HERE for example.
In Japan the PM who deliberately held an early election found the result blow up in his face. For a leading Western nation Japan really does not have a democracy. One party ,the LDP, has virtually governed the nation since the end of WW2.
All interesting
