Question

It is true that some uninformed people will cast ballots, but it is also likely that mandatory voting will motivate those voters who haven't become involved before to educate themselves, now that they need to vote. What type of claim does the author use? A. Claim of value B. Claim of definition C. Claim of cause and effect D. Claim of policy

Answer 1

C. Claim of cause and effect

Answer 2

Answer:

Option C. The author is using a claim of cause and effect.

Explanation:

A claim of cause and effect is a proposition that is based on the concept that when one thing occurs, it will cause or influence another thing to happen. In this case the author is using a claim of cause and effect by stating that mandatory voting will be the cause of two different effects: it will make some uninformed people to cast ballots, but it will also motivate uninvolved voters to educate themselves on the voting matters now that they are forced to cast a ballot.
