the primary difference in a direct democracy and indirect democracy is that in an indirect democracy

question 5 options:

the people vote on all decisions made in the government

a mayor elects the representatives of the nation

all voting decisions are publicly announced

the people elect representatives to make government decisions for them

In a direct democracy every single citizen of the democratic state votes on every single thing that needs to be decided and for something to be passed it must obtain a majority vote from the voting populace. However an indirect democracy which is what the US, Britain and Canada operate under is where the populace of the democracy vote for representatives by popular vote who then will vote on things such as federal laws/taxes or the constitutionality of a bill/law. Although a good thing to keep in mind that in both democracies anything can be challenged or pushed through by the populace if they believe it to be needed.
