express an opinion usually following discussions,
debates or election campaigns.

Constituents- residents of a place represented by an
elected official.
Voters - constituents who cast a ballot for their chosen
candidate.
PRIVATE ENTERPRISE
 is industry and business which is owned by
individual people or commercial companies,
and not by the government or an official
organization.
Basis of a free market capitalist system, it is
a business unit established, owned, and
operated by private individuals for profit,
instead of by or for any government or its
agencies.
CIVIL SOCIETY
 is comprised of groups or organizations
working in the interest of the citizens but
operating outside of the governmental and for-
profit sectors.
Organizations and institutions that make up civil
society include labor unions, non-profit
organizations, churches, and other service
agencies that provide an important service to
society but generally ask for very little in return.
Civil society is sometimes referred to as
the civil sector, a term that is used to
differentiate it from other sectors that
comprise a functioning society.
