Why was the importance of voting in the Constituent Assembly more than a mere majority decision?

Because voting gave formal democratic approval after discussion

Direct answer: A is correct. In the Constituent Assembly, voting was important because it formally approved decisions after members had considered proposals, raised objections and debated alternatives. A vote was therefore not simply a mechanical count; it gave a decision institutional and democratic legitimacy within the Assembly's procedure. This does not mean that discussion became unimportant. Rather, debate helped members understand the issue and voting recorded the Assembly's final collective decision. B is wrong because voting on constitutional provisions did not abolish rights. C is wrong because the Assembly's decisions were not made by one person alone. D is wrong because the relevant decisions were taken through the Assembly's own proceedings. Memory cue: debate develops the decision; voting formally confirms it.
