In Pompeii, the male citizens came together to elect their aediles and duoviri. The assembly of citizens had no other functions than that (any wider powers they once held in the pre-Roman period had been lost when the town became a Roman colony). Indirectly, though, since the aediles were drafted into the local council or ordo^ the assembly also elected the council —... or, as we shall soon see, the majority of it. But what did these elected officials do.'' What powers did they or the ordo have.'* Why might the electorate's choice matter.-^ As a Roman town from the early first century BCE, Pompeii had no big decisions of peace and war or national policy to make. Those were made in the capital. But it was Roman practice to leave local communities to govern their own local affairs. So what exactly was at stake.'* We have some evidence for this from the town itself.
