Me): which option is an example of a compound sentence? a. because people have the right to vote, the democratic process is successful. b. the democratic process is successful because people have the right to vote. c. voting rights are the cornerstone of the democratic process. d. voting rights are the cornerstone of the democratic process, and they should be protected.

The answer to this question is 'D. Voting rights are the cornerstone of the democratic process, and they should be protected.'

The definition of a compound sentence is "a sentence with more than one subject or predicate."

As we can see in this sentence, the two subjects are split apart by the conjunction, in which this case is 'and.'
