Answer to Question #245561 in English for ongie

Question

Discuss how will you go about balancing the two roles without compromising your rights to association and bringing government into disrepute 

Answer 1

One way to keep the temptations of governments and legislative majorities under control is to vest authority over electoral administration in the hands of civil servants with a strong tradition of political neutrality. An additional method is to ensure that the established power structure is subject to review and to criticism.

The two main 'balances' are:

• political parties and candidates, and
• a free media and press.
