What is a democracy called when:
1. legislative lines for the state and federal areas look like a kindergardner drawing squigglies
2. When many states do everything they can to find reasons to disqualify valid voters
3. When felons are not legally able to vote, even after their time is served
4. When massive amounts of money come in from republican businesses to significantly sway elections
5. When massive lies and half-truths are put out in the media thanks to the massive money
That just doesn't look like a democracy. What it is? I don't know.
