To what extent are political representatives determined by general, free and fair elections? From 1 to 10.
There are no elections on free and fair elections.
General, multi-party elections are held, conducted properly and accepted as the means of filling political posts. However, there are some constraints on the fairness of the elections with regard to registration, campaigning or media access.
General elections are held, but serious irregularities during the voting process and ballot count occur. The rights to vote, campaign, and run for office are restricted, and elections have de facto only limited influence over who governs.
National elections, if held at all, are entirely unfree and unfair.
