As Nigeria approaches its presidential election, concerns about potential violence and claims of election rigging loom large in the public discourse, reminiscent of previous elections marred by unrest and fatalities. Muhammadu Buhari, a former military leader, is challenging incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan, with a divided electorate along economic and religious lines further complicating the political landscape. In Germany, Saxony's elections are heating up with CDU's leader expressing concern over disillusioned voters amidst a tight race against the far-right AfD. Meanwhile, in the U.S., Democrats are facing criticism for attempting to exclude Green Party candidate Jill Stein from the Wisconsin ballot, raising alarm over the diminishing competition in elections. This trend extends to other candidates like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Cornel West, who are fighting legal battles to secure their positions on various state ballots. The actions of the Democratic Party have sparked debates about the integrity of democracy and voter choice across multiple states.
