Well. That's the problem with democracy. Sometimes the ordinary people don't vote the way their betters intended them to. That doesn't necessarily mean democracy is broken. Just that sometimes the majority of the populace want things which are not very admirable.

From the same publication that wrote this about the Bilderberg meetings, surprisingly failing to mention their effect on 'democracy' around the world: http://www.economist.com/node/17928993/

And yup, not voting how the establishment and their media wants you to, is quite rightly an issue for them.
