"For democracy to survive, there has to be public confidence in the rule of law and regular and fair elections," writes James Roger Sharp, professor emeritus of history. "That is how democracies govern themselves, and efforts to destroy public faith in the system threatens that democracy." Sharp's op-ed, "Democracy on trial: Can we save it?," was published on Syracuse.com.
