First of all, in a real democracy - candidates nominate themselves as candidates. Second, any party can be established and support a candidate or even several candidates. Third, the candidates choose their own platforms on which to run and they are not restricted in their speech. There would be no blackmail about voting and no scrutiny of an individual's vote. The election board is supposed to be unbiased and independent and would never favor a single candidate. This has all not happened in Turkmenistan. The candidates were chosen and pre-approved by the current government - a conflict of interest. All parties but the party in power were banned from participating - this is totalitarianism (not democracy I am afraid). The candidates were forced to swear allegiance to the former dictator and his policies - more totalitarianism and a prevention of free speech. The platforms were screened, dictated and monitored daily by the secret police - in no democracy would the police, and never a secret police, be allowed to interfere in an election. There would be no blackmail of the voters, saying they would not receive flour rations if they did not vote. That means the government was personally checking on the votes of every single eligible voter in the country. This election board early came out in favor of a single candidate. Anyone from an election board in a democracy who did this would be fired immediately. The ballots are not expected to be officially counted for ten days. But already the Berdymukhammedov regime is planning to install itself before the votes have even been officially tallied. Is this a democracy? The answer is clear: the elections were rigged, unfair, biased, interfered with the civil rights of the citizens and predetermined from the start. If I were asked to give this election a grade, it would have to be: F (for flunk, not passing, unsatisfactory ). It appears to have been another propaganda exercise staged at the expense of the People of Turkmenistan.

He has no right to manage Turkmenistan. So don't put this dish on our table. It is out of date and it smells and tastes awful. I think Shyhmyradovs` suit very well as a puppy of Russia or any "put some black on Turkmenistan and Turkmens" side character. -------------------------------------- * Turkmen constitution states that the president must be an ethnic Turkmen and must know Turkmen language as well.
