Ah but election administration is astonishingly neutral in a lot of countries. It's just a matter of wanting clean elections...

It's a matter of political culture and it is always difficult to change well established patterns. Creating consensus on a fairness culture when it comes to elections is hard when you have had the gerrymander game going on for centuries and there is the issue of one party being damaged by a large electorate, so easy access to voting isn't a neutral result.
