If rights are not protected in democracy, how can electoral victory be misused?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The winning party may use its power to suppress opposition and criticism

Direct answer: D is correct. Winning an election gives a party authority to govern, but it does not give unlimited power. Rights, constitutional rules, courts, media, and opposition activity place democratic limits on the majority. If these protections disappear, the victorious party may misuse its majority to silence critics, restrict meetings, weaken independent voices, or treat opponents unfairly. Elections alone therefore cannot guarantee democracy; elected power must continue to respect rights and law. A is not necessarily true because a winning party may also restrict freedoms. B is wrong because electoral victory does not make all parties equally successful. C is wrong because the need for ballots is not removed by a party’s victory. Memory cue: an electoral majority is permission to govern, not permission to silence everyone.
