If all parties are present in an election but there is no real difference in their programmes, what will be the quality of voter choice?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: There will be a choice of names, but policy choice will be weak

Correct answer: A. Democracy requires more than several names on a ballot. Voters should have a meaningful opportunity to compare different programmes, policies, priorities, and records. If every party offers essentially the same programme, the formal number of candidates may be large, but the real policy alternatives are narrow. Voters can choose a person or symbol, yet they cannot choose clearly between different directions for government. Option A is correct because it distinguishes nominal choice from meaningful policy choice. Option B is wrong because people can still vote even when programmes are similar. Option C is wrong because similarity of programmes does not invalidate the voter list. Option D is wrong because secret voting can continue. Memory cue: “Many names do not automatically mean many real choices.”
