Why is avoiding fake news important in elections?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To protect voters from misleading information

Direct answer: A, to protect voters from misleading information. Fake news may contain invented claims, edited material, or incomplete facts about candidates, parties, rules, or polling. If voters believe it, they may make choices without accurate knowledge, and trust in the election may fall. Checking information through reliable and official sources helps citizens separate facts from rumours. B is wrong because avoiding false information does not stop vote counting. C is wrong because voting age is a legal matter, not an effect of fact-checking. D is wrong because reliable information supports, rather than removes, confidence in election institutions. Memory cue: false information can produce false impressions, so verify before sharing or voting.
