There are two types of choices when one makes a vote:

  • <u>The Rational Choice:</u> A "rational" voter is conscious that voting is a personal right that is attributed to each and every one of the citizens of a given country. It is up to that voter's criteria to discern which candidate to vote for.
  • <u>The Collective Voting Choice:</u> A "collective" voter will probably tend to conform with a group he or she belongs and vote according to the choice that the group has convened to be the best. People that belong to political parties or other organizations tend to be collective voters.

Regarding the case mentioned in the question, when a voter assesses a candidate's past performance, regardless of the political affiliation of this candidate, he is engaging in a "rational" vote.

Which case allowed the supreme court to claim the power of judicial review (the authority to declare a law unconstitutional?)
lions [1.4K]
Two landmark decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court served to confirm the inferred constitutional authority for judicial review in the United States: In 1796, Hylton v. United States was the first case decided by the Supreme Court involving a direct challenge to the constitutionality of an act of Congress, the Carriage Act of 1794 which imposed a "carriage tax".[2] The Court engaged in the process of judicial review by examining the plaintiff's claim that the carriage tax was unconstitutional. After review, the Supreme Court decided the Carriage Act was not unconstitutional. In 1803, Marbury v. Madison[3] was the first Supreme Court case where the Court asserted its authority for judicial review to strike down a law as unconstitutional. At the end of his opinion in this decision,[4] Chief Justice John Marshall maintained that the Supreme Court's responsibility to overturn unconstitutional legislation was a necessary consequence of their sworn oath of office to uphold the Constitution as instructed in Article Six of the Constitution.

lidiya [134]

The total number of unemployed people is the statistic.

Explanation:

The number of unemployed people is defined by the number of people who do not have a job but are actively seeking employment.

This also has a filter on the total population against the age limit below which it is not legally permissible to work.

So, considering all these filters have been met in the description of the statistic mentioned in the question it is easy to assume that this statistic is about the total number of people who are unemployed in an area or a country.
