If there is only one candidate in an election, what will be lacking?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Real electoral choice

Direct answer: C is correct. An election is meaningful only when voters have a genuine opportunity to choose among competing candidates or parties. If there is only one candidate, voters may be asked to approve or reject that person, but there is no normal choice between alternatives. A is wrong because a voters' list can still exist even when there is one candidate. B is wrong because a polling booth may still be arranged for recording votes. D is wrong because votes may still need to be counted, even in a one-candidate contest. The missing element is real electoral competition and the ability to select one option over another. A democratic election should allow candidates to compete under known rules and voters to make a meaningful choice. Memory cue: no alternatives means no real choice.
