Breitbart: Following the first round of voting for a new president of Italy, the majority of those eligible to vote cast blank ballots and after a second-round on Tuesday, and no clear candidate has emerged.
Under the Italian system, the President is selected by an electoral college of politicians from across the country who gather in Rome to vote. Of the nearly 1,000 elected officials eligible to vote in the presidential election, which includes members of the chamber of deputies, the Italian senate and regional politicians, 672 placed blank votes in the ceremonial urns in the Chamber of Deputies on Monday.
Of the votes cast for actual candidates, judge Paolo Maddalena received the most votes at 36, while outgoing president Sergio Matterella saw 16 votes. Former Italian Prime Minister Bettino Craxi also received votes, despite being dead for the last 22 years, SVT reports. MORE HERE

Here in America the votes usually come FROM the deceased, not GO to them.
So, similar to American politics, there are really no candidates worth voting for.
The whole world knows the jigs up.

The Libertarian Party does have at least one good practice I’d like to see adopted all over the place. In all of their internal elections, you have the choice to vote for NOTA (None Of The Above). Here’s the kicker: if NOTA wins, another election is held but ๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐ฎ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐๐๐ฉ๐ ๐ค๐ฃ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐๐๐ง๐จ๐ฉ ๐๐๐ก๐ก๐ค๐ฉ ๐๐จ ๐๐ฃ๐๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ก๐ ๐ฉ๐ค ๐ง๐ช๐ฃ ๐๐๐๐๐ฃ.
