Cevap
The correct answer is that citizens can influence a change by voting for candidates who support changing that law in the next regular election.
In a parliamentary democracy, the authority of the government comes from the people. Because citizens elect their representatives, the most direct and effective way to influence the law-making process is through the ballot box. By voting in regular elections, citizens can support candidates who align with their views, ensuring that the Parliament remains responsive to the community's needs.
