Well honey, to elect means to choose. So let's say you're with a group of your friends and your brother and sister and you want to play a game. You come up with freeze tag but your sister Amber might want to play hide and seek. To elect the game you want to play, you might hold a vote asking the rest what they would rather do and the majority wins.

It's kinda the same with our leaders. Two ta three, sometimes even more political figures talk about how they would help solve problems. We listen to what they have ta say about important issues and how they would deal with those issues: things liiiike how they would treat other magical creatures, or who wizards and witches can marry, or how magical laws might be handled, and then the whoooole country decides who they want to be in charge for a few years based on the ideas and concepts those political figures talked about.

Does that make sense?

[Sofia listens intently, nodding as her explanation makes sense] Yup! I like to learn new words for the things I already know. But.. [her eyes narrow] how did you know my sister's name? [her eyes widen] Can you read minds? Wait! [she glances down, having just realized what her new friend said] You have laws about who can get married? That's not very nice!
