Internet Election may be introduced



 

Internet election system may be adopted soon in Japan.  Japanese politics had a exciting and dramatic changing time 2 month ago by new diet member election. For spreading opinion or promotion of candidates, news paper or TV have always been the best and most influential method in the past Japanese election.  Probably this is not that different which country we may go.

Today’s news says that Japanese government may try to introduce Internet Election. This means that for promotion or opinion conveying, internet could be allowed for candidates to use.  Internet voting system is not yet commented by Japanese government.

I personally go against internet voting.  As we often hear from the USA, they say internet voting caused more trouble and corruption.

However, internet election is welcome for me. In Japan, media don’t tell the truth. They often say what the sponsor companies request. This is ridiculous. Internet already becomes the conversation place for truth seekers. So if internet election could be introduced,  we will have more chance to know and talk about the real things.
