The correct answer is B. party-line voting.
Party-line voting refers to when voters decide to support candidates based on their political party affiliation rather than evaluating each candidate individually. This heuristic simplifies the decision-making process by allowing voters to align with the platform and policies of a party they already support. It’s a common way to cast a vote, especially for those who may not have the time or resources to research each candidate in detail.
