    Explain how I’m wrong then. The causal chain was action --> voting --> results; action is important as one of the causes of voting, but if they only did direct action and did not vote, they would not have seen results. Is this incorrect?

      The action led to the government having to accede to demands. That the government is elected is not the reason it felt the need to accede to the demands. Without voting the results would still happen. Without action there would be no results.

        I didn’t realize they acceded to demands. Perhaps I am not as informed on this topic as I thought. Do you know what demands? Or is there a link with more details somewhere?
