Okay, so, um, like, did you know that there's this thing called a representative democracy? It's super cool! Basically, what happens is we get to pick these special people who speak on behalf of everyone. They have this really big responsibility of making important decisions that affect us all. And, guess what? They have to go to these election thingies to make sure they're doing their job properly.
