8. Maybe the word election does quite fit the bill, anymore?

It seems more like a, keep the people thinking that it is their government, public relations event.

You do have to spend as much as you can on something like that because it is dangerous and fatal if the people get some notion that they are only pretending to have a real democracy and a choice in what is enacted.
