Let's say that there's a country. this country has religious groups A (90%), B (5%), C (5%). The country start to have elections but the majority of people vote for a group A religious party that wants to force its religion on group B and treat group C as second class citizens. What should you do if you were the president? Do you ban this party? And even if you ban it, how to stop the people from electing another party when they have such a mentality? Do you also ban elections? What should you do if you have the power?
This is always the hidden danger with democratic systems - the system itself is indifferent as to who gets elected so there is always a chance that, via legitimate means or otherwise, people who are antithetical to the core precepts of the system can be put in charge of it.
I don't know that this question is really answerable in the hypothetical. It's something that's pretty specific to a particular place, history, and political environment.
