Judging Candidates in the Electoral Environment

In the electoral environment, some judgments on candidates may be influenced by government persuasion and misinformation. Swing voters may have doubts about a candidate's credibility, despite most not believing it. The 2000 delegates in an open convention are more susceptible to influence than the 14 million voters. The process of choosing candidates in American democracy may lead to criticism, as seen in past elections regarding Joe Biden's candidacy.
