'Who Says Singapore is Not a True Democrazy?!'
aka 'That's 4¢ Worth'

SINGAPORE : "Mentally unstable voters will get special help on polling day.

The Elections Department says no voters will be refused a ballot paper if their name appears on the Register of Electors.

In response to queries, it says election officials will attempt to explain to the mentally infirm how to vote.

However, if it is clear they are unable to comprehend what they are doing, officials will seek agreement from all the polling agents present that the voter be allowed to cast a blank vote."
