    C.

    Explanation:

    This is because the passage is saying that Governments are created among men (in this case it means people, and I'm not saying this to be fair I'm saying this because it's true) but the men get their powers from the consent (in this scenario, the votes) of the people that are in the country (or state, etc.). Which implements the "majority rules" saying or the Will of the majority Enlightenment idea (the decision to put the "men" in power is up to the majority of the people in the country or state, or something else) <---that's what the majority rules or the will of the majority idea means.
