B. Majority rule.

Majority rule refers to choosing alternatives that have more than fifty percent of votes. This type of decision can only be achieved when there is direct democracy and only two alternatives (when more alternatives are present, it is called plurality). An example of this situation are referenda. In a referendum, people are often given two choices (most commonly, yes and no) on a single question, and they are allowed to vote directly. Most forms of democracy use majority rule along with other decision-making methods.
