Which important civil right is not granted to people living in U.S. territories?
a. full Congressional representation
b. electing local officials
c. trial by jury
d. freedom of religion

Respuesta :

"a. full Congressional representation" is not granted to people living in U.S. territories, although it should be noted that these people often still hold primaries for elected officials.

The first alternative is correct (A).

In modern national states, democracy has been implemented in a representative manner, that is, a particular group of people is elected by elections to represent the entire American people, in a proportional way in the House of Representatives.

Representative democracy in large countries like the US is a necessity, a matter of feasibility. The costs of structuring an election where everyone could participate would be very high, unfeasible. For this there are the parties to which candidates must join to apply. The voter, in this context, must choose between the options presented to him, that is, in a limited way.
