"There are a cluster of individual rights considered as essential for the establishment and maintenance of a democracy. They extend from the right to form political and other associations, to campaign, stand for office and vote. The rights extend beyond the rights of the individual voters to the rights of political parties and other association to canvas support and campaign. The cluster is normally desegregated into the following specific rights: the right to vote, in particular the right to a secret ballot; the right to regular and fair elections; the right to stand for public office; freedom of association; freedom of assembly; freedom of expression."
