Why can low voter turnout be a serious concern for democracy?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because public opinion and representation may appear less broad

Answer: A, because low turnout means that fewer citizens participate in choosing representatives, so the result may not reflect the views of the whole eligible population as broadly as it could. Democracy depends not only on holding elections but also on meaningful citizen participation. Low turnout may occur for different reasons, such as lack of information, practical difficulty, disappointment or exclusion; the question only asks why it is a concern, not which particular reason caused it. B is wrong because fewer voters do not automatically make an election fairer. C is the opposite of low participation. D is wrong because parties do not disappear merely because turnout is low. A low turnout does not by itself prove that the result is invalid, but it can weaken the breadth of representation. Memory cue: turnout measures participation, and participation strengthens representation.
