Question:

Read these two cartoons carefully. Write the message of each of them in your own words. Have a discussion in class on which of the two is closer to reality in your locality. Draw a cartoon to depict what elections do to the relationship between voters and political leaders.

Answer:

The cartoon on the left conveys the idea that a candidate's competence, strategies, preparation, and commitments mean nothing if they don't receive enough votes to win. The only person who has the ability to vote is the standard citizen, who decides the outcome of an election.

The second cartoon depicts that during the election campaign candidates make big promises to the voters but after the elections are over, they easily forget their promises. The voters have to run after them for their needs.

The second scenario is close to the reality in our society.
