Electoral Manipulation
Electoral manipulation involves actions that influence election outcomes in unfair or illegal ways. This can include tactics like voter intimidation, ballot tampering, miscounting votes, or gerrymandering—designing voting districts to favor certain candidates. Such practices compromise the fairness and integrity of elections, undermining public trust and democracy. While some manipulation may be subtle or hidden, its goal is to alter the genuine democratic process to favor specific individuals or groups rather than reflecting the true will of the voters.
