If the population of an area changes greatly, why may demarcation be needed?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To keep representation balanced

Correct answer: A — major population changes may require reviewing constituency boundaries so that representation remains reasonably balanced. Demarcation means drawing or revising the boundaries of electoral constituencies. If one area grows much more than another, the number of people represented by different elected members may become highly unequal. A review can help organise constituencies more fairly, according to the applicable constitutional and legal framework. Demarcation does not end voting; it helps determine where people vote and which constituency they belong to. Option B is therefore wrong. Option C is wrong because boundaries are not drawn to hide candidates. Option D is wrong because campaign rules are a separate matter. Memory cue: population changes can affect constituency balance; demarcation addresses territorial representation, not campaigning.
