A democratic election must include all citizens who are legally eligible to vote. If one group is stopped from voting at the polling station, its members cannot express their preferences. The final result then represents only the people who were allowed to participate, not the full electorate. For this reason, the will of all eligible voters is not included, and option A is correct.

Preventing a group from voting is not made fair by having fewer candidates, more campaigning, or a longer ballot. Those details do not repair the loss of citizens’ participation. Inclusive voting means that eligible people can reach the booth, cast their vote freely, and have it counted according to the rules. Excluding a group can change the result and therefore makes the election doubtful and unfair.
