Buying the election with foreign money

I think it will in two ways.
One, if you repeat a lie often enough, and loud enough, on TV, some people will fall for it. Especially people that get all their news from TV.

Two, the constant haranguing in these attack ads will turn people off, so they won't vote at all. That leaves the activists and cronies in control of the vote.

Remember, if only three people in the country vote, assuming the candidates vote for themselves, the third vote rules.
