Elections are the most important process for a democratic country. They are called upon to ensure a timely change of power and the coming to it of the most worthy persons from the point of view of the people. But how can an ordinary person influence the elections, make them more open and fair?
Instructions
Step 1
Vote in elections. This method of influence is available to all adult citizens of the country. At the same time, it is important to consciously approach the choice of a candidate. Get acquainted with the political programs of specific individuals and political parties, analyze the actions of these politicians in the past and present. This will help you determine the most appropriate person to receive power.
Step 2
If you notice any irregularities during the voting during the voting, report it to observers from political parties and members of the election commission. The list of such violations is quite wide, for example, at the polling station and all campaigning is prohibited near it. In addition, people must enter the voting booths one at a time, with the exception of rare cases, for example, special employees of the Izberkom help the blind. Your indifference to a situation of violation will help the elections become more honest. If the commission refuses to respond to your words, you can also contact the police officers who are at the station, and subsequently write a complaint, transferring it to the election commission of your district or city.
Step 3
Become an observer for one of the political parties. This will allow you to control the most important process in the elections - the counting of votes and filling out the sheets with the results, at least in one precinct. In order to become an observer, it is enough to contact one of the branches of the party you are interested in. You will receive training to explain your responsibilities.
Step 4
Become a member of the election commission. This position is likely to be more difficult to obtain than observer status, but still possible. In order to become a direct participant in the counting of votes and voter registration, you will need to contact the election commission at your place of residence. There you will be told if there is a possibility of such employment, as well as its conditions and payment.
