The problem is that in most\u00a0cases, and with most voting, the actors are not all honest.\u00a0 When bribers target the right people,\u00a0 especially those who are willing\u00a0 to sell their votes, the party with the most money wins.\u00a0 Regardless of what is being decided by a vote, there should be no room for any type of bribery.\u00a0 But that is in the real world.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div data-removefontsize=\"true\" data-originalcomputedfontsize=\"16\">Instead of platforms, merit and credibility, cash has become a determining factor for who wins in most elections these days.\u00a0 The influx of cash from all kinds of nefarious sources\u00a0 and groups sways leaders regardless of what is in the public\u00a0best interest.\u00a0 The introduction\u00a0of money into politics has allowed politicians to buy leverage that alters\u00a0the fabric of our economy and country.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div data-removefontsize=\"true\" data-originalcomputedfontsize=\"16\">There is no easy or quick fix to this but if we do not do something about these political\u00a0inducements and bribes as well as the overall influence of money in our politics, all our elected representatives would be tarnished now and into the foreseeable\u00a0future.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div data-removefontsize=\"true\" data-originalcomputedfontsize=\"16\">Until we have\u00a0meaningful electoral\u00a0reform where handing out these inducement are made wrong\u00a0 and punishable, money will continue to influence\u00a0our elections.,<\/div>\n<div id=\"antig-270367281\" class=\"antig-in-comments_2 antig-entity-placement\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/@hadeedmotorsltd\" aria-label=\"Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1000\/h:250\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1000\/h:250\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2.png 1000w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:300\/h:75\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2.png 300w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:768\/h:192\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Hadeed_WEB_Banner_MG-2.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" width=\"1000\" height=\"250\"   \/><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bribery In Voting &#8211; Can We Ever Solve it?\u00a0 Election\u00a0Fraud is A Serious\u00a0Problem!. &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;by\u00a0 \u00a0Audley Phillip As we head into the much anticipated by election in St. Mary&#8217;s South, there has been much talk about political inducement or bribes and the role it\u00a0is\u00a0 playing in this all important seat for both the ABLP and the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":20749,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-188647","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.1 (Yoast SEO v24.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Bribery In Voting - Can We Ever Solve it?
