Democratic Elections begin with Political Party Primaries

Today is the day that the biggest and probably the most democratic political party, Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) was to hold it's Primary elections for the Parliamentary candidates. Unfortunately due to administrative issues with regards to lists of voters it has been postponed. How does this affect the rest of us?
It affects us as they are the largest political organisation in Maldives, and they reflect a lot of the general population. MDP having a successful primary, in the most democratic manner, is paramount to upholding democracy as a whole within the nation.
Having Problems with the election can be viewed positively as well. To be optimistic; it can be said that the issues being raised is a sign that some sort of accountability does exist within the party and the people will not stand by and watch things go wrong any more.
MDP was an ideology of democracy and i hope it lives up to that ideology through this election. Good luck all candidates; VOTE FOR CHANGE!!!
