A. allow citizens to vote in elections

Explanation:

A direct democracy is where citizens have the power and their votes determine all of the laws, policies, etc. This can be seen in Switzerland. In a representative democracy, citizens vote for representatives to do this in higher branches of government, as seen in countries like the United States of America, Canada, United Kingdom, etc. In both of these cases, citizens are allowed to vote in elections. Rights of the citizens are protected, they are not led by a single ruler, and leaders do not have unlimited powers.
