What is the purpose of an affidavit in elections?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To give necessary information about the candidate

Correct answer: B. An election affidavit is a formal sworn statement in which a candidate discloses information required by election rules. Such information may include details about assets, educational qualifications, and certain pending criminal cases. The purpose is to improve transparency and help voters make a more informed choice. An affidavit does not reveal or hide individual votes, because voting is conducted through the established voting system. Option C is wrong because polling booths are used to conduct voting and are not closed by affidavits. Option D is wrong because voter lists are maintained through a separate electoral process. The declaration may inform voters, but it does not itself prove that a candidate will win or lose. Memory cue: affidavit means “officially declared information.”
