Editing Election (section)

===Lack of open political debate or an informed electorate===
{{See also|Political censorship|List of banned political parties}}
The electorate may be poorly informed about issues or candidates due to lack of [[freedom of the press]], lack of objectivity in the press due to state or corporate control, or lack of access to news and political media. [[Freedom of speech]] may be curtailed by the state, favouring certain viewpoints or state [[propaganda]]. Scheduling [[frequent elections]] can also lead to [[voter fatigue]].
