Which democratic principle is most harmed by unfair use of money power in elections?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Equal opportunity

The direct answer is A: equal opportunity. In a democratic election, candidates should have a fair chance to reach voters and explain their programmes. Step by step: one candidate or party uses excessive money; money may buy more advertisements, transport, workers, publicity, or influence; poorer candidates cannot compete on similar terms; therefore the opportunity to compete is no longer equal. Option A is correct because unfair money power damages equal opportunity and fair competition. Option B, secret ballot, means no one should know how a person voted; money power does not directly change ballot secrecy. Option C, the voter list, records eligible voters and is a different matter. Option D, the voting date, concerns when voting happens, not whether candidates compete equally. Memory cue: money power creates unequal chances.
