Answer 1

Best answer: "Political scientists can better predict political outcomes if they understand how people are stratified."

Explanation: Social stratification (class, race, education, gender, etc.) shapes political preferences, turnout, and group interests, so knowing these divisions improves prediction. The other options are incorrect because stratification helps target and understand groups rather than automatically broadening appeal or making it possible to please everyone.
