Democratic regimes and representative institutions operate based on a free and fair populist vote. The amount of funding a party receives and the source of the funds can lead to mistrust. These political organizations play a crucial role in representative government. They are tasked with recruitment activities that involve nominating candidates for leadership positions, managing government operations once elected, and holding lawmakers accountable. A political system with low levels of civic trust often experiences disputed elections. Officeholders and political parties must be transparent and obedient to political activities surrounding financing. Following these laws and being responsive to the needs of the citizenry between elections help build trust in the political system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The media, interest groups, and nonprofit organizations are all critical stakeholders in building political trust. These groups can reach numerous citizens with their messages surrounding the civic processes within the country. They can find innovative ways of rallying the citizenry to engage in political participation. These groups often have access to information that allows them to investigate the inner workings of party financing. This information helps them to hold politicians and parties accountable before and between leadership elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
