THE ELECTORAL SYSTEM

These two political parties represent different ideas of how government should operate. They work on how to share their platform or ideas to the citizen thereby promoting and educating people on how to vote during election.
The political parties are well developed with an organization that is capable of competing at all level. Before a political party engage itself in an election, they first conduct a primary election which enables candidates to compete within the same political party. The winner from the primary will then compete in the general election.
