If voters have only one candidate before them why is electoral competition weak?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because there is no real choice

Electoral competition means that voters can compare candidates and choose among genuine alternatives. When only one candidate is available, voters cannot compare different programmes, promises, records, or policies through the election. Even if voting and counting still take place, the central democratic choice is missing. Competition is therefore weak because the result does not arise from a meaningful contest between alternatives.

Option A states the essential reason: there is no real choice. The number of voters does not determine whether competition exists, so option B is irrelevant. Open polling booths are a feature of the voting process, not a reason for weak competition, making option C incorrect. Counting votes is necessary for an election but does not create competition by itself, so option D is also incorrect.
