Equality of the individuals is essential to democracy, each individual regardless of their advantages and disadvantages in society being on equal footing based upon the merits of their ideas and their majority held values (while at the same time being respectful and defending of the minority, treating them as equals despite hold an opposing view) to determine the direction the democracy should proceed.
If equality wasn’t a part of democracy, and individuals who were given an out sized influence because of some other attribute (wealth, inherited title, caste/class, religion, left-handedness, etc) then the political will would be unfairly distributed towards those that had a predetermined influential attribute to determine the direction of the society. Though that would seem to be great for the benefiting subset of people, but it is in fact not sustainable to maintain inequality in society. If a large enough segment of society doesn’t buy-in into the decisions that directly affect them, then they will grow to feel resentment and no longer are incentivized to remain within the hegemony of the society leading to both unintentionally and intentionally sabotaging the society that excludes them. This was main criticism in Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations (a.k.a. the original document of Capitalism) of the economy of the Roman Empire, that those affected by the decisions of the society/economy didn’t have influence on those decisions. Societies that strives to maintain inequality, eventually will put more and more effort to divert resources to maintain unnatural inequality.
