  5. 5. Because it is the people's own government, chosen by them.
  6. 6. The principle that every citizen has an equal vote and equal rights.
  7. 7. Democracy is expected, above all, to produce a government that is accountable to citizens and responsive to their needs. It does this by following set procedures: governments are chosen through regular, free and fair elections, decisions are taken after public debate and discussion, and citizens have the right to information that lets them examine how decisions are made. If a government performs poorly, people can vote it out. This makes democratic government transparent and answerable. Most importantly, democracy produces a legitimate government — one that is the people's own and is accepted as rightful, because it is based on the people's consent. This legitimacy is why people everywhere prefer democracy even when it is slower or less efficient than other systems.
