Hi from Argentina!

> They pay homeless people to vote for the left party.

Probably ilegal here too, but here they use more subtle ways to pay.

> The threaten people to vote for the left party.

Ilegal here too, but here vote is secret and in person, to make coercion harder

> They tell Somali women how to vote.

It looks like free speech. Is this happening inside the poling place?

> Two Eritrean priests went to the polling site with hundreds of Eritrean women and instructed them how to vote and for which party.

Here there are some rules, like no political teams nearby the poling places. Probably like 100 meters away.
