===============	
#bc4c3d22 ver:0.06

Voter dissatisfaction is a global trend in democracies, with incumbents being ousted in elections worldwide. Reasons for this include social media magnifying problems, recovery from the pandemic, and backlash against globalization and immigration. A recent Pew poll found that a median of 74% of respondents felt politicians didn't care about them, and 42% said no party represented their viewpoint. In the UK, there is a crisis of confidence in political elites, while the US is experiencing increasing polarization. Both situations have implications for the future of democracy. #VoterDissatisfaction #DemocracyInCrisis #PoliticalPolarization...
