Sheik101 posted:ronan posted:Gilbakka posted:1964 general elections were not fair. Firstly it was forced on the democratically elected PPP government after only 3 years in office. Secondly the ruling colonial British government changed the voting system from first-past-the-post to proportional representation. Previously the PPP was winning first-past-the-post elections hands down and PNC was getting a bad thrashing. Thirdly, although the PPP secured the largest votes the Governor bypassed Jagan and summoned Burnham and D'Aguiar to form a coalition government. In his memoir Jagan asserted that the PPP was cheated, not defeated.
excuse me
how exactly was the 1964 elections "not fair"?
Guyana has not had a first-past-the-post election since . . . does that make all those elections the PPP won since 1992 "not fair"?
the other 'reasons' you cited have NOTHING to do with "elections" proper
words have meaning banna. . . cut the Stalinist propaganda and NONSENSE!
