Two voters are a very small percentage of the town's population so we can treat each of the two selections as independent events.
Event A = pick first democrat = 54% = 54/100 = 0.54
Event B = pick second democrat = 0.54
Since A and B are independent we have:
[tex]P(A\text{ and B)=}P(A)\times P(B)[/tex]Substitute the values:
[tex]P(A\text{ and B)=0.54}\times0.54=0.292[/tex]Answer: 0.292
