Answer 2

The correct option is:

That it would curtail our right to select the candidate of our choice.

A short ballot contains only candidates for the most prominent legislative and executive offices, leaving judicial and minor administrative posts to be filled by appointment. In a Presidential Short Ballot, the candidates for presidential electors are excluded and only the candidates for president and vice-president are shown. Te vote for the presidential candidates is as well a vote for the party electors whose names are filled with the Secretary of State.
