Why can majority decision in elections not end minority rights?

Correct answer: Because constitutional rights are also important along with elections in democracy

Correct answer: A. Elections use majority support to decide who will govern, but democracy is not simply unlimited majority rule. Constitutional rights protect the dignity, liberty and equal status of every citizen, including people whose side did not win the election. A majority cannot lawfully use its power to remove the basic rights of a minority. B is wrong because majority decisions are important for forming governments and making many public decisions. C is factually false because votes are counted in elections. D is false because members of minority communities can and do participate as voters. The democratic balance is simple: majority rule chooses governments, while constitutional rights set limits on what any government may do. Memory cue: majority decides power; rights protect people.
