Taking a vote by bribing a voter is called what?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Corrupt electoral practice

Correct answer: A, corrupt electoral practice. Bribery occurs when money, gifts, services or another benefit is offered to influence a voter’s choice or obtain a vote. It is corrupt because the voter’s decision is being affected by an improper reward rather than a free evaluation of candidates and policies. Option A is correct because bribing voters damages equality, freedom of choice and the fairness of the election. Option B is wrong because fair voting requires a voluntary choice without bribery or pressure. Option C is wrong because a secret ballot means that the voter’s choice is kept private; secrecy protects the voter but does not make bribery acceptable. Option D is wrong because voter education gives people information about voting and democratic participation, not gifts in exchange for votes. A legal election depends on informed and free choices. Memory cue: secret ballot protects privacy; bribery purchases influence—these are completely different ideas.
