Periodic elections and adult suffrage are basic conditions of any democratic system yes In a democracy, citizens are sovereign and exercise their inherent sovereign rights through adult suffrage. Voting rights exercised by citizens in periodic elections is a powerful means of ensuring citizens' participation in governance. It is a citizen's right to participate in the governance process of the state, but since all citizens cannot participate in the government in the formulation of the state's policy, citizens participate in the governance process by choosing their representatives based on the one person one vote principle. In other words, the representatives chosen by the citizens through elections are the heirs of the citizens who gain legitimacy through the voting rights exercised by the citizens and participate in the governance process on behalf of the citizens by representing the wishes, feelings and needs of the citizens. As all human beings are equal, citizens should be given the right to vote in a democratic system based on the philosophical belief that in order to rule over someone, the free consent of the governed must be obtained.
