If the names of eligible youth are not added to the voters’ list, what democratic loss will occur?

Correct answer: The newly eligible population may remain deprived of voting

Correct answer: A — newly eligible citizens may be deprived of participation. A democratic election depends on an accurate and inclusive voters’ list. When young citizens reach the legal voting age and satisfy the eligibility conditions, they should have a fair opportunity to register. If their names are missing, they may be unable to vote even though they are eligible, so the electorate does not fully reflect the people entitled to participate. This reduces political inclusion and weakens the representative character of the election. Option B is wrong because excluding eligible citizens makes participation less inclusive, not fairer. Option C concerns constituency boundaries and is unrelated to adding names. Option D concerns the counting process and does not follow from an incomplete roll. Memory cue: updating the roll protects both accuracy and participation.
