(VIDEO IN CHINESE, WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES)

【新唐人2011年4月21日讯】广东和山东正在進行村委换届，而中国各地也相继爆出了所谓“中国特色”的选举，比如过程中，有的几分钟搞定——走形式；有的被官方操控结果；有的贿选。更令人惊奇的是，民间欢迎的当选干部被黑社会追杀。专家指出，由于法律和执政者不保护选举的公正性，农村选举只是假民主的过场。
大陆农村选举问题多多，山东先是暴出山东牟平农村最牛选举——五分钟搞定，后又暴出高票当选的山东省荣成市东山村村委会主任毕重江，在家中被歹徒疯狂砍杀二十多刀。有村民说，毕重江是东山村上访维权的骨干。
而广东顺德最近也進行了村委会选举投票，其中几个村的维权力量没能胜出，而由政府和党委推选的候选人上任。村民表示不满。村民维权代表认为，政府在基层选举中有明显的偏向，排斥民选代表参选，以及在程序上做手脚。现在各村庄的维权力量联手，要進行抵抗。
选举专家姚立法认为，现在的农村村委会选举有很大问题，一是「没有法律规范」，也就是，政府组织选举的机构，如果侵犯或剥夺农民的选举权和被选举权时，没有法律条文约束。另一个问题是，选举被少数人或黑社会操控，暗箱操作，致使选举缺乏公正、透明，更没有任何监督。
姚立法（前湖北潜江市人大代表）：“选举的话，就是它不按程序来，正因为它不按程序来，更缺乏公正、透明，因为他暗箱操作！暗箱操作你怎么监督？它不是在选民面前，在大庭广众下这样進行的选举。目前中国的选举非常糟糕，只有形式、只有过场，没有实质，我们的农民成了假民主的装饰品。”
去年底的「乐清案」，为民维权的钱云会付出了生命代价。对于受欢迎的民选代表当选后不断受到打压、追杀的现实，姚立法表示，老百姓拥护的人当选了村干部，这直接触犯了当地黑社会和利益团体的利益，他们就疯狂报复、打压，就是想否定选举的结果。
姚立法：“为什么出现这种情况？就是法律不保障选举的公正，而且社会特别是执政当局，它不保障选举的公正—— 一个是法律上的问题，一个是基层执政的当局，他们不保护公正，甚至它们成了邪恶势力的保护伞，当然才出现这种情况。”
姚立法从1987年开始，先后四次自我推荐参选湖北潜江市人大代表，最终当选，当选人大代表后，姚立法自费印刷《谁当村官 村民说了算》等小册子免费派发给农民，并组织农民学习《选举法》和自荐人大代表的细节等。
2004年9月，姚立法接受美国国务院邀请，观摩美国总统大选。他的传奇故事与他在任时揭露的冤案，和当局非法操作选举等事件，被改写成《我反对：一个人大代表的参政传奇》一书。
姚立法认为，基层选出的「非公正民选」代表，再参与更高层的选举，同样失去了公正合法的基础。因此他说：“中国没有实实在在的选举，只有假民主的形式、假民主的过场。”

China's Pseudo Village Elections
Village elections with Chinese characteristics are taking place at present in many parts of China. Some elections took only 5 minutes, others were controlled by authorities, and some were even bought with money. More surprisingly people's favorite officials are being hunted down by the underworld. Because law and authorities are not interested in maintaining elections' fairness, village elections are only a pseudo democracy.
Village elections in China have many problems; the most absurd election in Shandong took 5 minutes to complete the process. In another village, the winner was stabbed more than 20 times at home. Some said that he was the backbone of human rights.
In Guangdong, several villages' rights candidate did not win, and the authority-backed candidates took offices. From the base level, local authorities are biased against people's representatives and they manipulate the process. Now many villages want to join forces to protest.
Election expert Yao Lifa believes that in rural areas, serious problems exist. One is “No Laws,” or ifs official organizations deprive citizens of their voting rights, there is no law to restrain them.
Another problem is that the elections are controlled by a few people or the underworld. As a result, elections lack fairness, transparency and supervision.
Yao Lifa (ex-member of Hubei People's Congress): "When an election does not follow the procedure, it will not be fair and transparent. How do you monitor a secret operation? It does not act before the voters or the public eye. Current elections in China are terrible; they have formalities and go through steps but have no substance. Our farmers are just window dressings for pseudo democracy.”
In last year's “Yue Qing incident,” he gave his life for right activist Qian Yunhui. As for the popular candidates, after being elected they suffer from suppression and life threatenings. Yao said
that when popular candidates become officials, this interferes with interests of the underworld, thus, revenge and suppression are on their way to deny the outcomes of the elections.
Yao Lifa (ex-member of Hubei People's Congress): "Why is this happening? That is when the law, especially the ruling authorities, do not guarantee the impartiality of an election - fist it questions the law, and second it is about the low level authorities, they do not want to guarantee fairness. When they fail to protect the just, they become the umbrella of the evil forces.”
Since 1987 Yao was four times self-recommended candidate as a member of Hubei People's Congress, and ultimately elected. He educated farmers with his pamphlets: “Villagers have the final say who the officials should be.” Meanwhile he also organized farmers to learn the election law and how to become a self-recommended member of the People's Congress.
On September 2004 Yao Lifa accepted an invitation from the U.S. State Department to observe a U.S. presidential election. His legends and the injustice he exposed with illegal dealings in China's elections
were all being written in his book “I Oppose: A Legend of A Member of People's Congress.”
Yao thinks the representatives who are elected by unfair means from a low level also lose their legitimacy for the next elections. Therefore, there is no real elections in China, only pseudo democracy in various forms and shapes.
