If an election is free but only one candidate is seriously contesting why will democratic quality be low?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because voters will have little real competitive choice

Direct answer: A is correct. A free election means voters are not forced and can express their preference without improper pressure. However, democracy also requires meaningful competition: more than one candidate or political alternative should have a genuine chance to seek support. If only one candidate is seriously contesting, voters may technically be allowed to vote, but they have little real choice and cannot compare different programmes, records, or promises. B is wrong because votes can still be counted even when competition is weak. C is wrong because the existence of a voter list is a separate administrative requirement and does not automatically disappear. D is wrong because equal voting value concerns the principle that each eligible voter’s vote should carry equal weight; it is not the main problem described here. Memory cue: free voting gives freedom, while competition gives alternatives; democracy needs both.
