I am pretty sure that the answer that goes in the blank is <em><u>need</u></em>
Answer:
The majority of elections in the United States are held to facilitate indirect democracy. Elections allow the people to pick representatives to serve in government and make decisions on the citizens’ behalf. Representatives pass laws, implement taxes, and carry out decisions. Although direct democracy had been used in some of the colonies, the framers of the Constitution granted voters no legislative or executive powers, because they feared the masses would make poor decisions and be susceptible to whims. During the Progressive Era, however, governments began granting citizens more direct political power. States that formed and joined the United States after the Civil War often assigned their citizens some methods of directly implementing laws or removing corrupt politicians. Citizens now use these powers at the ballot to change laws and direct public policy in their states.Explanation:

Dear Ravi,
I haven’t been able to write to you for a long time. There have been so many social problems that I could barely find any time. I hope you are fine.
To begin with, my elder sister was going to get married next month. Negotiations were going on with the groom’s family. It was almost finalised when the groom demanded a new car and a huge dowry.
My father was furious and wanted to lodge a complaint against the groom. The wedding was cancelled off. Dowry has become a fatal problem.
The next social problem came from our neighbour. He ruthlessly turned his old ailing parents out of the house. The poor old couple had no place to go. We gave them shelter and approached the police. This has become a recurrent social problem.
Another acute social problem is the extortion of money in the name of festivals. There was a huge fight in our colony when some young boys forcibly demanded money for the celebration of Diwali.
All these social problems have become universal menaces. If not curtailed they will turn into Frankenstein. We have to fight them together. I will write to you again. Take care.
Your friend
Nikhil
