In a democracy everyone needs to vote. Which can be at the polls. Why do you assume that everyone needs to sit in on every legislative session? It could be that way, but I don't see where it has to be. There's a lot of ways to be democratic. For example, perhaps our block elects a representative to attend council meetings, who will inform our group on issues in front of council, maybe someone else contributes with some extra research, etc, then we decide how our block will vote in council. Just one of many possibilities.
