battered electorate syndrome

A population of voting citizens of a country, state, etc. who consistently vote for candidates whose goals are counter to their own economic, social, health, and educational needs. They can see that these candidates abuse them, but they rationalize it away, blame others for their predicament, & remain crawling loyal to them none the less.
For example, a battered electorate syndrome is exhibited by American white blue collar workers who vote for GOP candidates, completely violating their own economic interests. Even worse, after the GOP candidates woo them through the election, the minute the election is over the GOP is back in bed with the mega-wealthy making promises & coming through on them. The GOP knows they can sweet-talk their electorate into accepting that they must sleep with these billionaires to bring the gifts of trickle down economics to their electorate. Meanwhile the billionnaires are importing their new yachts & firing more employees in their most recent company efficiency overhaul, and of course sending more jobs overseas.

electrikk

Really annoying and gay trend, a cousin of emo, fashioncore, and hardcore, mostly on myspace "&&" xanga. Basically fashioncore, but "electrikks" guys and gals have an obsession with dinosaurs, even tho thats really gay because dinosaurs dont exist. Ambulances, car crashes, and guns are also part of their obsession. These "electrikk" people are usually chubby, just the way it is. They listen to bands such as my chemical romance, the used, because it is the "cool" thing to do. By the way, your not electrikk, (thats not even the way you spell it, its electric), your vibrator is.

Singapore Election

When ministers reluctantly have to kiss their voters’ asses or pretend to listen to them to get re-elected, while reminding them that if they tick the wrong party, their constituency or surrounding won’t get upgraded, or would be given the least priority.
Singapore election is generally a low-key affair, because most Opposition members of choice can’t run—they’re disqualified because of some fine, were previously jailed for illegal public gatherings, or are now bankrupt due to lawsuits filed by some ministers.

election

Judging by the definitions on this site, an election is a despised act, looked down upon by uppity Americans who either think that they could come up with a new, flawless political system or that a Nazi-style dictatorship is preferable.

-Yeah... Hmmm... Let's go steal some money from my mom's purse and buy some pot.
