Ikke helt.
Before 1872, voting was often public, which allowed pressure and bribery. The Ballot Act introduced secret voting and made elections fairer.
Før 1872 foregik afstemninger ofte offentligt, hvilket gav plads til pres og bestikkelse. Ballot Act indførte hemmelig afstemning og gjorde valgene mere retfærdige.
