i believe the nation state on earth is the cause of all the peoples harms
we should unify our continents then our hemispheres them our planet
erase this national folly from existiense
easier than fifty years wage enslavement
each times ten billion

Yes they are legitimate most of the time, the media selects the winners way ahead of time so the only reason to actually rig an election is to thwart the medias candidate and that probably rarely happens, and then every once in a blue moon a candidate slips in past the medias approval. But as far as plain out election rigging goes, I don't think it happens very often in the last 100 years because just because there is no need to.

They don't need to lie, they are 2 sides of the same shekel.

They're legitimate. What stops them from lying about the results are the countless volunteers involved in the process.
If you're really concerned and want to know for certain why you should trust elections, you can volunteer too. It's a fairly patriotic thing to do, when you think about it.

The only way you will ever have legitimate elections is if you do them on the blockchain where everyone can publicly verify their vote through encrypted codes

>Do you believe elections are legitimate?
No, it's all fake and gay theatre.
