Who is a candidate in an election?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: One who contests an election

Correct answer: B, a person who contests an election. A candidate is someone who offers himself or herself for election in order to become a representative. The person may receive support from a political party or may contest independently, but the essential idea is participation in the electoral contest. Voters choose among candidates by casting their votes. Option A is wrong because counting votes is done by authorised election officials, not what defines a candidate. Option C is wrong because running a school is an educational responsibility and has no necessary connection with contesting an election. Option D is wrong because courts are run by judicial authorities, not election candidates. A useful memory cue is: candidate and contest begin with the same sound—both refer to the person taking part in the election contest.
