In a representative democracy, who makes the decisions about the laws?

The president
Elected representatives
Judges
Citizens directly

The correct answer is: Elected representatives

Elected representatives make the decisions about the laws in a representative democracy. This is because in this form of government, elected representatives are chosen by the people to make decisions on their behalf. The president is typically not directly involved in the law-making process but may have the power to veto or approve laws. Judges also do not make decisions about laws, as their role is to interpret and apply laws in court cases. While citizens may have input and influence on laws through participation in elections and other civic activities, they do not directly make decisions about laws in a representative democracy.
