If elections contain only personal attacks instead of policies, which need of voters will not be fulfilled?

Correct answer: The need for an informed comparison of policies.

Correct answer: A. Elections help citizens choose among competing candidates and programmes. To make a thoughtful choice, voters need information about what each candidate or party plans to do, how it will address public problems, and how its record can be judged. Personal attacks may create anger or entertainment, but they do not explain policies or offer a useful basis for comparison. A is correct because without policy discussion, voters cannot properly compare promises, priorities, performance, or possible consequences. B is wrong: polling-station decoration has no role in judging public programmes. C is wrong: knowing the counting schedule may be administratively useful, but it does not help compare policies. D is wrong: physical height is not a democratic basis for selecting a representative. A healthy election debate focuses on public issues, plans, evidence, and accountability. Memory cue: informed choice needs issue-based discussion, not personal abuse.
