The correct answer is Citizens have decision-making power through voting for leaders and certain policies.

Representative democracy is a form of government in which the people have political power, but indirectly since it exercises this role through some representatives chosen democratically through free elections. That is why it is also known as an indirect democracy.

In general, the election of representatives of the people is carried out by voting for organizations that defend certain political ideals and models. These organizations are the political parties.

However, each party has its own internal organizational mechanism, so when the people vote for any party it does not mean that they choose the concrete representatives, but rather by a program that this party defends.
