Why is the principle of one person, one vote kept separate from social status?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: So the political voice of all eligible voters remains equal

Correct answer: A. The principle of one person, one vote, one value means that every eligible voter has one vote and each vote carries equal formal weight. Social status, wealth, caste, occupation, education, or family background must not give one citizen extra voting power or take the vote away from another eligible citizen. This protects political equality and recognises each citizen as an equal participant in choosing representatives. A is correct because it states the democratic purpose. B is wrong because wealth must not buy additional votes. C replaces equal citizenship with caste-based discrimination. D denies equality by excluding poor citizens. Memory cue: social differences may exist, but democratic voting value is equal.
