均等

Balance 是屬於一詞多義吧。

balance diet = 均衡飲食
balance beam = 平衡木 (體操運動一種]
balance sheet = 資產負債表
in the balance = 懸而未決

in favour (their preferred policy) = 支持偏好政策
against (their preferred policy) = 反對偏好政策

balance 在這語境=相等 = to be equal in value, amount etc. to something else that has the opposite effect.
- 《牛津高階英漢雙解詞典》

選擇 (select) 支持 (people in favour) 和反對 (people against) 政策的兩方的人數都相等,不會讓支持的人多過反對的人,或這反對的人多過支持的人。

建議用 “均等” 。

他們會選出支持和反對政策的兩方具均等/相同的人數。

供參考。

人數均衡

針對他們喜好的政策,他們會讓支援和反對者人數均衡

-------
均衡是指數量不出現大的偏差,這裡如用“等”則不太準確。
