Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
"The present state of the constitution is as follows. The franchise is open to all men who are of citizen birth by both parents. They are enrolled as citizens at the age of eighteen. On the occasion of their enrollment, the current citizens give their votes first on whether the new candidates appear to be of the age set by the law. If the candidates are not of the right age, they are dismissed back into the ranks of the boys. Secondly, the current citizens give their votes on whether the candidate is free born, and has two citizen parents as the laws require. If they decide that he is not a free man, he can appeal to the law-courts. If the court decides that he has no right to be enrolled as a citizen, he is sold by Athens as a slave. If he wins his case, he has the right to be enrolled as a citizen without further question."
Per Aristotle, who had the right to vote em Athens?
Answer:
According to Aristoteles, he only had the right to a citizen vote and were considered citizens, who were free men, with an Athenian father and mother and aged at least 18 years.
Explanation:
According to the text, we can see that Aristoteles had a very direct and established opinion about who could and could not vote. For him, only citizens could vote. These citizens were a select group of men aged at least 18 years old, who had been born in Athens and had an Athenian father and mother, moreover, this one must have been a free man.
If any man who did not meet these requirements tried to vote, he would be taken to a court to assess whether or not he was a citizen. If he could not prove it, he would be prevented from voting, in addition to being sold as a slave. If he could prove it, he would be free to vote.
