Voting cattle
The term voting cattle is a derogatory term for people who uncritically vote for a party or candidate without first finding out about their goals and competencies.
The term is now also MPs used the quasi in a proceeding from their party imperative mandate the party discipline must follow their party and not offend for fear of sanctions against the party line.
The term is also occasionally used by critics of political reality as the projected perception of voters in general by politicians: the politicians, so the criticism, are not interested in actually fulfilling the will of the voters; Rather, they would simply regard the voters as “voting cattle”, which should confirm the ruling elite in their position (and thus the existing political system itself) by casting its vote once per legislative period , but which has no further relevance for the political decision-making process.
