I don't know how it is called in the USA, but e.g.in Germany, in France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria and certainly more countries, even in the EU, voters give a mandate to those, whom they elect in their parliaments = parliamentary mandate
So it doesn't laughable but totally correct when ...

Actually, a mandate is THE central idea of a representative democracy.
