Election aggregates the preferences of the voting public. It is a direct manifestation of the practice of sovereign will. This encompasses the following:
1. leadership selection
2. performance review
3. renewal of consent
4. index for political purposes
5. access channel

People gives authority to aspiring leaders to act in the name of the people.

"Demokratiko ba ang Pilipinas? I believe that we don't have a democracy, I believe that we have democratic forms (like election) but we don't have democratic processes for a simple reason that we don't have a material base for it."
