Question

where the people elect their own leaders for a fixed period of time​

Answer 1

Answer:

A fixed-term election is an election that occurs on a set date, and cannot be changed by incumbent politicians other than through exceptional mechanisms if at all.

Fixed-term elections are common for directly-elected executive officers, such as directly-elected mayors, governors and presidents, but less common for prime ministers and parliaments in a parliamentary system of government.
