Switzerland, one of the most democratic places in the world has done this for a very lomg time.
While im theory its relevant a practical issue has never happened once as far as I can remember.
Going to hugly distributed areas to beat all voters up seems like a terrible attack vector.
So maybe in some places it could be a problem but I dont see it as much of a problem in a modern First World Democracy.
- sgc 8y agoThere are definitely smaller countries in Europe where parties have purchased the election by giving money door to door. I know it happened in Albania, along with threats of family members losing their jobs, etc. And they did lose their jobs once the election was over. There were threats to private sector employers if they didn't cooperate, etc.
