The so-called “great electors” who act as the regional delegates have started voting for the next Italian president alongside the Italian parliament to elect the next president of the country.

Although the election cycle in Italy always triggers intense politicking, this time, the presence of the incumbent Prime Minister Mario Draghi for the presidency has made things even more interesting.

Assembly elections in India have ignited a new debate on the use of technology in the electoral process amid the increasing COVID cases.

A country that itself is a house of rising information infrastructure had been facing manual intervention in elections with little to no use of technology.

However, the chief election commissioner of India, Sushil Chandra, is taking measures to increase the role of mobile applications in the elections that are about to be held this year in different states.

With the midterm elections of America approaching later this year, another event before that is the Brazilian elections, which are likely to shape the politics of Latin America for years to come.

Jair Bolsonaro, who became one of the top populist leaders of the world, is facing a challenger in the form of the former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, and both of them are polarizing the politics of the country.

While Bolsonaro is furthering the right-wing narrative, Lula is on the left side; thus, both of them are representing poles,

The latest elections in Chile rose a long-term student activist Gabriel Boric to power, who voted to rein in the powerful mineral interests of the country.

Now that he is elected, the new constitution will soon become a reality in a country rich in natural resources.

Countries rarely get a chance to write their own constitution, as most of them are living under the constitutions written by their founding fathers or the powerful men who followed.

Even for those countries that get a chance, climate change hardly gets an important place in the

Many elections in Latin America have resulted in the collapse of moderate, centrist ideology as people seem more inclined to either extreme in these countries.

This stands true for Chile, Peru, and Brazil, where centrist politicians failed to make a mark in the latest elections.

However, the trends seem to be broken in the upcoming Colombia elections, as the victory for centrists seems imminent in the May 2022 elections.

The approach of Colombia’s incumbent President Iván Duque in tackling the popular protests makes him highly unpopular among the masses as he

Chileans have finally reversed voting for right-wing politicians as they elected the leftist lawmaker Gabriel Boric as their new president.

The youngest president-elect in the history of the country, Boric has the opportunity to set high standards in a country that is currently gasping for a new constitution.

Since former President Salvador Allende’s departure, who committed suicide in a 1973 military coup in the country, Boric is expected to be the most liberal president of the country.

It gives liberal politicians of the country breathing space to survive in a country that was

The highly anticipated expectations of delaying Libyan elections have started to become true as the High State Council (HSC) has asked to delay the presidential elections until February amid the prevailing distrust and tensions.

HSC is an advisory body that was created under a peace agreement of 2015; however, no major political entity accepts its authority.

While the power of the body is always challenged as it does not enjoy popular support of Libyan political parties, it was about time that such demands of delaying the election would surface before the vote.
