> modern death of democracy The primary key to democracy is that it allows voters to vote out unpopular autocratic politicians. Politicians don't want to give up power, but must be forced to (as seen in previous US election). The usual narritive about democracy is that voters get to vote for policies they want: however I haven't seen that occur in my personal experience in New Zealand. However parties can lose an election for unwanted policy or because their leaders are not desired.
