@James The username sounds as if an inactive Beta user had unintentionally came active. You really need to change it back.
@Adám James is their real name, so it isn't offensive at all. However, I'm going to flag your post because you're intentionally trying to disrupt the (ex) mods with an insignificant mutation.
Wait, I realized that I'm doing that too ...

Looking at the list of badges, it appears that Constable ( Served as a pro-tem moderator for at least 1 year or through site graduation) is the only gold badge that can be earned without having any silver badges.
Going through the badges in the order listed at codegolf.stackexchange.com/help/badges?filter=gold:
Socratic implies Inquisitve
Stellar Question implies Favorite Question
Great Question implies Good Question
Famous Question implies Notable Question
Illuminator implies Refiner
Lifeboat implies Lifejacket
Great Answer implies Good Answer
... oops, it appears one could in theory get Populist without any silver badges, because that requires a score of only 20 (21? 22? 23) and Good Answer requires a score of 25
Unsung Hero implies Tenacious

... Fanatic implies Enthusiast
Legendary implies Epic
You can't get a gold badge in a tag without also qualifying for a silver badge in that tag
Marshal implies Deputy
Constable and Sheriff appear to have no required silver badges, but also are very hard to earn
Steward implies Reviewer
Copy Editor implies Strunk & White
As you discovered, Electorate implies Civic Duty
Publicist implies Booster
... and that's all of the non-retired gold badges.

Hardest thing on CGCC: Get a gold badge without getting a silver badge. It's possible, but it's very hard.

Q: Simulate a random walk

RGSContext In this challenge, a random walk is a stochastic process in which a particle at a position with integer coordinates (or a drunk man) moves at each integer time step (that is, at t = 1, 2, 3, ...) by taking a step of size 1 to any of its neighbouring positions, with the direction of the s...

It's probably easier on CGCC than many other sites, because of the different meaning of "accepted answer"; all you have to do is post a very popular answer on a question that has an accepted answer with a score of exactly 11.
