Social media is in on the act too, of course.
If they can't even report this properly, then what use are they? Precisely.
There will be some people who want to see a fair election process, regardless of who wins or loses. There will be others who just want to win and don't care how that's achieved. Hopefully the former will prevail and the latter will be quite rightly condemned. Although it won't be the mainstream media who condemn them, because they are part of the latter group. As is being demonstrated right now.
