a person who votes in the presidential election but does not vote for a congressional candidate in the same election is known as:
a. a "cannot-voter"
b. a "nonvoting voter"
c. an independent voter
d. an actual nonvoter.
i think its d.
I'm not sure about this one. Can you find these terms defined in your textbook?
its b.
Didja,
You'll need to back that up. Where did you get your information?

Of the choices, I agree d. The person actually did not vote in the congressional election. The nonvoting voter is refering to in b as a person who claimed after the election to have voted, but in fact, did not.
To find the correct answer to this question, we need to understand the different terms provided as options and their meanings.
a. A "cannot-voter" is not a recognized term in politics.
b. A "nonvoting voter" may sound contradictory, as 'nonvoting' typically refers to someone who does not vote at all.
c. An independent voter is someone who does not align strongly with any particular political party.
d. An actual nonvoter refers to someone who does not vote in an election.
Given these options, the answer would indeed be d. An actual nonvoter is a person who chooses not to vote in the presidential election and does not vote for a congressional candidate in the same election. This indicates that they abstain from voting entirely rather than voting for other candidates.
Therefore, the correct answer is d. an actual nonvoter.
