ANALYZING THE SAMPLE BALLOT
In the example above, you can clearly see that « Mariam Adjufu » is a leading candidate in terms of policies. Basically the voting citizen named Jean Dipango wants for president the candidate « Paul Kona » but prefers the policies of other candidates.
Why should this be acceptable?
Simply because someone has a good policy does make them the right person to lead a country. Someone with the right leadership skills can get things done. On the other hand having the right leadership skills should not be a reason to have around you a group of people who just say yes to everything you say simply because they want a position of influence.
Here we can assume that Jean Dipango approves the policies of the candidate Mariam Adjufu but he does not see her as being the president of Africa. He voted for her Education policy, and her Technology policy. He also voted for the Defense policy of the candidate Carole Mandela. Finally, he voted for the Economic policy of the candidate Pierre Kenembe.
With This Method The Voting Citizen Will be Able to
– Select the candidate he believes will be the most fit for the presidential task.
– Select the program he believes will better our society independently from the candidate. The program component voted by the majority will be implemented during the presidential mandate.
– Be at peace in selecting policies without violating his conscience.
Advantage of This Voting System
– This voting system will eliminate the polarization of the political views in our society.
– It will also eradicate the selfish interests in political parties.
– This voting method will reduce the problem democraties faced when choosing a president.
– The members of the presidential cabinet are elected by the people and work for the people.
How many times have we found ourselves selecting a candidate just because he was the only one who championed our most valued policies even if we hated the other 50% of his program with a passion?
The Policy Based Voting System is a solution to the plague our current Democratic System has become.
The same voting method shall be applied to the entire democratic system (parliament, senate, etc…)
