2. What is democracy?How does the Cth-Constitution frame the Australian democracy?

3. The author of the text (https://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/7633779/an-australian-republic-requires-a-new-constitution/) is critical about the electoral system in Australia as one central pillar of the democratic principle. What does the Cth-Constitution say about elections? Does the Cth-Constitution prescribe any particular electoral system? How did the High Court interpret the Cth-Constitution regarding elections?

What is a"single-member district electoral system"?The author (in https://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/7633779/an-australian-republic-requires-a-new-constitution/) comes across as rather critical in that regard and appears to favour a "proportional representation" electoral system instead.
