In democratic countries, each candidate/party has the same right to speech during election campaign. So stuff like short clip for each candidates and either multi party debates or second round (where applicable) debate

And election campaigns only last a few weeks as opposed to the seemingly constant campaign in the US.

And parties publish manifestos with their positions on everything, as opposed to what both major parties are currently doing.
