What statement reflects a citizens need to increase his or her civic participate ?

The correct answer is "I don't feel like my representatives vote the way I want them to."

In a representative democracy, you don't vote on things but you vote for a representative person like a president to make choices instead of you. If you vote for someone and that someone doesn't do things that you would want them, you would get the desire to become an activist and participate more in your everyday political life.
