Answer:
the action of electing or the fact of being elected.
An election is a way people can choose their candidate or their preferences in a representative democracy or other form of government. ... The legislature chooses the government, usually by majority vote in the legislature. Some democracies elect a president, who then selects the government.
Among political scientists, the existence of free and fair elections on a regular basis is considered the minimal condition for a democracy (democratic regime) (Dahl 1971; Diamond 1999).
Unfairness in elections encompasses all varieties of electoral fraud, voter suppression or intimidation, unbalanced campaign finance rules, and imbalanced access to the media.
