Why do constitutional limits remain necessary even when a policy decision has majority support?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: So that even a majority does not violate rights and the Constitution

Direct answer: A is correct. Majority support is important in a democracy, but it is not unlimited power. The Constitution establishes procedures, distributes authority among institutions and protects rights that cannot be taken away simply because a larger number supports a proposal. Without constitutional limits, a majority could unfairly burden a minority, silence criticism or use public power arbitrarily. Limits require governments and legislatures to act within law and allow courts and other institutions to review unlawful action. B is wrong because constitutional limits do not assume that every majority decision is wrong; they ensure that every decision remains lawful and fair. C is wrong because limits strengthen constitutional parliamentary government rather than abolish Parliament. D is wrong because courts do not become electoral contestants. Memory cue: democracy means majority rule with constitutional rights, not majority rule without restraint.
