I am only familiar with US elections, and I agree that it's a rigged system but it does still function a little bit in terms of if things were actually really, really bad, the election system would still work to improve things back to the admittedly sort of crappy status quo. The main reason it fails to work aside from the way its systemically rigged is voter apathy, misinformation, and a lack of critical thinking.
