Explanation:

A claim of value judges the worth, morality, or desirability of something, focusing on "good/bad" or "right/wrong". Option A makes a claim about the quality (effective, thoughtful) of leaders elected via compulsory voting, which is a value judgment. Option B is a claim of policy (calls for implementation), Option C is a moral value claim but is a broad prescriptive statement, and Option D is a tentative claim about solving a problem without a clear value judgment.

Answer:

A. [Compulsory voting] will help us elect more effective and thoughtful leaders.
