Participation in elections increases as education level increases across all age groups.
Education level was a significant factor in the outcome of the 2008 election.
Decreasing the drop-out rate among high school students will positively affect voting rates.
Increasing access to higher education will decrease citizens' participation in government.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Participation in elections increases as education level increases across all age groups. This conclusion can be supported by the information in the chart. The chart shows that the percentage of people who voted in the 2008 elections increases as educational attainment increases across all age groups. For example, 27% of those aged 18 to 24 with less than a high school education voted, while 70.2% of those in the same age group with a bachelor's degree or higher education voted. This trend continues for all age groups, indicating that education level is a significant factor in voter participation. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
