What would be the biggest weakness of democracy without elections?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: People would lose the main means to choose, change and hold the government accountable

Correct answer: A. Elections give citizens a regular and peaceful way to choose their representatives. In a representative democracy, people cannot all take part in every daily government decision, so they select representatives to govern on their behalf. Elections also allow citizens to remove rulers who perform poorly, break promises or ignore public needs. Thus, elections create public control and accountability. Without elections, people may have no effective method to replace a government or express approval and disapproval. B is wrong because removing elections usually reduces, rather than increases, accountability. C is wrong because citizens lose alternatives when there is no electoral choice. D is wrong because, without elections, rulers may remain in office for a long time. Memory cue: elections mean choice, change and accountability.
