Solution
In any modern democracy (whether indirect or representative), the rule of the people refers to the rule of the people's elected representatives. The electorate freely elects its representatives. It has long been conventional to offer the right to vote to anyone over the age of 18, 20, or 21 who is legally recognised as an adult. This principle is referred to as the Universal Adult Franchise or Suffrage.
