I chose the right answer (c) in this question. But I had a hard time negating this answer choice and then making the argument fall apart after negating. It would be great if you can show how to negate it

The tendency of a candidate’s visual image to
evoke positive feelings in voters at least
sometimes[not?] increases as media exposure
increases.

So by my attempt of negating, the conclusion does not falls apart. It just becomes uncertain...

Hello saharsh,

A proper negation might be like, "The tendency of a candidate’s visual image to evoke positive feelings in voters NEVER increases as media exposure increases." If that were true, why should the laws care about media exposure?

Hope this helps,
David
