Elections are a <em>nonviolent method</em> by which power dynamics in the government change and they make a fundamental contribution to democratic governance.
Any democratic government is conducted through its representatives. Elections enable voters to select leaders and to hold them accountable for their performance in office. Regular and periodic elections solve the problem of succession in leadership as new/better leaders can always be elected through voting.
In democracies,<em> people have a say </em>when choosing a government. People conduct elections to safeguard their freedom and rights. The<em> mass participation of citizens</em> ( edible voters ) guarantees a peaceful change in government, and is an example of trust of the citizens in the elected government.
American Indians occupied Alcatraz Island in 1969 as a show of protest against the United States's constant choice to overlook or misrecognize rights and responsibilities set by treaties between tribes and the US government. Additionally (and more importantly) it was a retaliation against the theft of tribal land by the federal government. Protesters believed that if the federal government could illicitly occupy tribal lands, tribal members could just the same occupy federal lands.
The Occupation of Alcatraz was led by the Indians of All Tribes (IAT) as a form of inter-tribal solidarity. It preceded the more famous occupation of Wounded Knee in South Dakota during the early 1970s. That protest was organized primarily by the American Indian Movement (AIM).
The answer would be, B. there was a more prosperous economy.
