If the names of eligible citizens are removed from the voter list, what will be the effect on the legitimacy of the election?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Legitimacy will weaken because representation will be incomplete.

Direct answer: A is correct. An election is legitimate when people can accept its result because the process gives eligible citizens a fair opportunity to participate. Removing eligible names prevents some citizens from voting and means that the elected representatives are not chosen with the participation of the full eligible electorate. The result may still be counted, but its representative character becomes weaker because an important group has been excluded before voting even begins. Option B is wrong: fewer voters do not make an election more legitimate; unjustified exclusion reduces equality. Option C is wrong because excluding voters is itself unfair, not a way to improve fairness. Option D is wrong because votes still have to be counted after polling. Memory cue: inclusion strengthens legitimacy; exclusion weakens it.
