If the names of newly eligible young people are added late to the voters' list, which weakness of the electoral process is seen?

Correct answer: Weakness of timely electoral-roll revision

Direct answer: B, weakness of timely electoral-roll revision. Electoral rolls must be updated so that citizens who have become eligible can participate, subject to the applicable registration procedures and qualifying date. If the names of newly eligible young voters are added late, those citizens may face difficulty voting in the relevant election even though they have reached the legal voting age and meet other conditions. Option B is correct because the failure is in updating the list on time. A is wrong because a manifesto is a party or candidate document. C is wrong because the problem is not the location of constituency boundaries. D is wrong because the voting machine may work properly while the voter is absent from the roll. Memory cue: eligibility must be followed by timely registration; reaching voting age alone does not automatically place a name on every roll.
