Answer:

Popular sovereignty is the principle that the authority of a state and its government are created and sustained by the consent of its people, through their elected representatives (rule by the people), who are the source of all political power.

Republicanism is a political ideology centered on citizenship in a state organized as a republic. Historically, it ranges from the rule of a representative minority or oligarchy to popular sovereignty.

Much like popular sovereignty, republicanism gives all the power to the people. The idea of the republicanism is that the people get to vote for the person they want to represent them in the government. if you don't vote, you are giving up your power to the people that will make the laws that govern you.
