How could any decision that voters make about how to cast their votes be a threat to the democratic process? A voter grounding their decision about who to vote for on a single issue is democracy working as intended. If this is bad it's only bad in the sense that voters in a democracy can vote for bad people or policies - but this is not something democracy as a system does or can promise to avoid.
