(B) The followers
A political party has three components: the leaders, the active members, and the followers.

---
The textbook explicitly lists the three components of a political party as leaders, active members, and followers. The other options — the Constitution, the Election Commission, and the opposition — are separate institutions/concepts, not components of a party. Examiners look for this exact three-part list, so remember it as a set.
