To anything. Getting those votes or getting 1/3 of them would have given it the same result. This is fake representation and takes away the core of democracy.

Yet again, the system can not change if people do not push for that.

Take example of this tweet, Hezbullah will get most votes during a voting process but this is going to be bad and would «f*ck» us.

This goes against the core of democracy that is tasked with fulfilling the objective of true representation of the people and this fair power distribution https://t.co/XgnuBGrtb5

Aside from this common consensus between Lebanese, it's the same in the mindset of the political parties.

Nabih Berri today, regardless of our opinion on his true intentions, called for a non secterian system with an election law that produces true parliamentary representation

Samir Gaegae was fast to object this and stand against it. He is but one of most political parties that know, true representation will be the end of their buffed representation and will pave the way to ending their grip on power. https://t.co/Uaxpu5FlOt

For Lebanon to be a sovereign country and a true democracy, Lebanese should unite around ending the secterian system and moving toward a new republic with an updated constitution that provides true representation and ends the grip of secterian parties. END
