Correct Answer: elected by the


Solution : The fourth option is correct.

Explanation: In the original sentence, the verb electing is incorrect as it doesn't align with the subject MIA. The correct form should be the past participle elected to convey the idea of being chosen as a representative. 

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: MIA is a representative elected by the voters of the constituency to the legislature.
