Gordon Brown was voted for, he was elected MP for his constituency, when Tony Blair packed in as prime minister, he also stepped down as leader of the labour party, Gordon was then elected leader of the labour party and asked by the qeeen to be prime minister. We never vote for a prime minister in this country, the leader of the party with most seats in the house of commons is asked to form a goverment by the queen. so Gordon Brown is democratily elected, wether you I or anyone else like it or not.
