Was there voter fraud? If not the election was legitimate and you should not complain. Trust me when I say that as someone who is from a dysfunctional democracy, where rioters recently overthrew the government that had won the last election in a landslide.

Once you start saying that the election results are invalid because “the people were misled” or because of ancillary legal violations, or similar excuses, there is no logical stopping point to how far that goes. This is what happened in Bangladesh, where I’m from. People always complain that there was this or that reason why their party didn’t win, they have protests over who won, they boycott elections and then complain the results are invalid because their party didn’t participate. You cannot run a democracy that way. It’s impossible to have a democracy when you try to second guess voters’ reasons for voting the way they did.
