It's not that hard

Or maybe it really is that hard, but believe me, having real, legitimate, fair elections is worth it. Really, when was the last time a legitimately, justly-elected official went on a massive genocidal rampage?

Okay, that's not so great of an example because it was a while ago but there certainly was a, uh, scale issue.

But, seriously. And it's not just Nigeria, it's "most of the world that's not Western Europe or North America." You have candidates. They campaign. People go to a designated polling place. They vote. You don't screw around with their votes. Easy.
