Preventing the ruling party from misusing government resources during elections is related to what?

Correct answer: Equal opportunity and fairness

Direct answer: B is correct. Government resources belong to the public and should not be used to give the ruling party an unfair electoral advantage. If the party in power uses official vehicles, public money, government advertising, offices, or officials for partisan campaigning, competing parties may not receive a genuinely equal chance. Preventing such misuse protects equal opportunity and fair competition. A is wrong because increasing government publicity for a party would make the imbalance worse. C is wrong because the remedy is not to cancel voting; it is to enforce fair rules. D is wrong because hiding counting would reduce transparency and public trust. The principle applies to the campaign environment, not merely to the act of casting a vote. Memory cue: public resources must serve the public, not one party’s election campaign.
