Who could vote in the Roman republic?
In the Roman Republic, only free male citizens were eligible to vote. These citizens were required to be of a certain age, own a certain amount of property, and have completed military service. Initially, Roman citizenship was restricted to the patrician class, who were the aristocratic and ruling class of Rome. However, over time, citizenship was granted to certain non-patrician classes, allowing them to participate in the political process. Nonetheless, women, slaves, and non-citizens did not have voting rights in the Roman Republic.
