Guardian looking at gerry mandered maps, voting machines that have never, ever matched with exit polls, the fact Presidential candidacy is closed to non billionaires, voters purged off rolls, the captured state of the RNC and the DNC (who get to decide who can and cannot run), the role of the billionaire Murdoch press in elections, the fact Princeton and Harvard consider the US an oligarchy and finally the fact most senators are millionaires
Very free, very fair and democratic
