If a citizen's name is in two voter lists, how can it affect the spirit of “one person, one vote”?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Duplication can increase the possibility of misuse

Correct answer: A, duplication can increase the possibility of misuse. The principle “one person, one vote” means that each eligible citizen should be counted once in the electoral roll and should be able to cast only one vote in the proper constituency. If the same person appears in two lists, the records become inaccurate. A duplicate entry may create confusion about the correct polling place and, if safeguards fail, may create an opportunity for an attempt to vote more than once. Election officials therefore check and correct electoral rolls. Option A is correct because it identifies the direct danger. B is wrong: a duplicate name does not change the legal voting age. C is wrong: it does not create or increase reserved seats. D is wrong: demarcation means fixing constituency boundaries, which is a different process. Memory cue: one person, one name, one proper electoral roll entry.
