The people of Hong Kong enjoyed democracy under British rule. Now under Chinese rule, they are feeling the sting of losing their liberty. It is interesting to note the demonstrations we see on the news are for a single purpose: to let the people decide for whom they will vote. The Chinese communist government pretends to offer the people a choice by voting for candidates preselected by the government.
In Hong Kong, the people declare with their protests that choosing between candidates vetted by the government is not a democratic choice.
Here in Utah, we have a governor who oversees the voting for the state school board. Candidates to run for the state school board are interviewed by a panel selected by the governor. This panel evaluates the candidates and sends those names to the governor for him to choose who will run for state school board. These choices, determined by this process, are then presented to the public as worthy candidates to run for state school board.
Utah is supposed to be the most conservative state in the U.S. How do we reconcile this outward reputation with the internal process that is clearly communist?

Sofia, Bulgaria - Bulgarians head to the polls on Sunday to elect what will betheir fifth government in just 18 months. If predictions pan out, the election will bring to power an uncertain coalition government led by a former prime minister whose toppling in February 2013 started the whole cycle.
Many say the situation in Bulgaria, the EU's poorest nation, has only worsened since then.
In February 2013, Bulgaria's centre-right government of Boiko Borisov was forced to resign following mass protests over rising utility costs, austerity measures, and accusations of governmental mismanagement. Since then, three governments have come and gone, victims of instability and a vocal and unhappy population.
The elections on Sunday are meant to draw to a close the political uncertainty, but it is unclear if they will.
"These current elections are crucial for Bulgaria," says Kancho Stoychev, an analyst with pollster Gallup International.
"Political reform is needed. People are tired, they are disgusted by all of the political parties and there are no 'new hopes' on the horizon to galvanise them," he adds.

In 2013, nightly anti-government protests ran for more than 150 days straight, the longest in the country since the fall of communism 25 years ago.
The political instability has been compounded in recent months by economic failures that included runs on two of Bulgaria's largest banks.
