Another thing we is know for sure is that if the PNC rigs and the Coalition 'wins', then Guyana will sink further into a despotic state.
Read what you wrote as it betrays a badly biased mindset: if the PPP wins , it is legitimate. If the Coalition wins: they rigged.
I am basing my observation on historical data. It is none other than the PNC's fault that all general elections as well as the bogus 1978 Referendum conducted while they were the government were deemed rigged. The PPP can't boast of that stellar rigging record.
If this is what you meant you surely stated it clumsily. Indeed the plebiscites you mention were rigged but the following: "The formula is simple. If the PPP wins, it is legitimate. If the Coalition wins, the PNC rigged the elections" suggests a pronouncement on the outcome of the March 2 vote.
They are one and the same. Everything doesn't need to be spelt out. We are not litigating in a courtroom.
They are not one and the same. Some are in the past and one is on March 2, 2020. To make the statement you made about a future event does betray a biased mindset.
Perhaps you don't understand what 'if' connotes.
I know what if means and my reading of your statement is the interpretation any reasonable person will make.
