According to the definition of democracy, how should elections be held?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Free and fair

The direct answer is D: elections must be free and fair. A democratic election requires genuine choice, equal opportunity, voluntary voting and an honest counting process. Step by step: voters should be able to hear different views, candidates should be able to campaign without unlawful intimidation, voters should decide without fear, and the result should reflect their votes. Option A is wrong because fear and pressure prevent free choice. Option B is wrong because an election held only for show, without real competition or the possibility of change, is not genuinely democratic. Option C is wrong because voters are essential; without voters there is no public choice and no democratic mandate. Option D is correct because freedom protects voters and candidates from coercion, while fairness ensures that votes and contestants are treated properly. Free and fair does not mean every candidate wins; it means the contest and counting are impartial. Memory cue: democratic elections must allow real choice without fear and unfair advantage.
