Detailed Solution

Elections enable people to evaluate the performance of the judiciary- this is a false statement. The election is the process through which people can choose their representatives at regular intervals and replace them if they want. Elections are therefore regarded as important in the current day and age for any representative democracy. Voters have a choice in who will design their laws. They have the power to decide who will make important choices and form the government. They have a choice as to which party's ideologies will direct the government and legislative process. The performance is evaluated through the elections wherein voters reflect their performance. Elections, however, are unable to assess the performance of the judiciary. Judiciary is an independent organ of a political system.
