The correct answer is OPTION B: They did believe in the Universal adult franchise.

• Liberals promote individual rights, democracy, secularism, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, and a market economy, depending on how these values are defined.
• The unbridled authority of dynastic kings was criticized by liberals.
• Individual rights, they insisted, must be protected against governments.
• They pushed for a democratically elected parliamentary government and a well-trained court, but only males with property should be permitted to vote, not all citizens.
