Read the whole phrase.
All four options begin with a form of “active”. That shared opening cannot distinguish them. Compare the nouns instead: campaign, procedure, campaigning and suffrage. Only the last names the entitlement itself.
This reverses question 115. That question asks what active suffrage means; this one describes the meaning and asks for the name. Knowing both directions lets you recognise the term regardless of wording.
The other three answers
The three distractors sound similar but do not name an individual entitlement to vote.
active election campaign.
An election campaign is an organised effort to promote political support. It does not name a person’s right to cast a vote.
active voting procedure.
An electoral procedure describes an election’s rules and process. The question asks for the personal entitlement, not its organisation.
active campaigning.
Campaigning means seeking political support. A person need not campaign to vote if they meet the eligibility conditions.
Political activity and voting eligibility are different.
Eligibility for a federal election follows statutory conditions. Enthusiasm, involvement or campaign work do not replace rules such as age and nationality requirements.
Conversely, an eligible person does not lose the right merely because they belong to no party or do no campaigning. “Active” in this technical term measures no level of involvement; it names the voter’s role.
