The people want to pick out who they think would be the best prime minister.
Not just a vote for a prime minister. A referendum is a vote on an issue that affects an entire nation.
Everyone does NOT have to vote. The individual has the choice, vote or don't vote. Besides, you don't vote for a Prime Minister. You vote for a political party. The party of your choice. The leader of the party which wins (the one which gets most votes) the election will become Prime Minister. If you didn't give the population the choice every few years to keep or dismiss the party in power then what you would have would be a dictatorship or a 1 party state, which amounts to the same thing. It's called democracy.
A prime minister is a member of parliament, like all the other members, so yes they can vote.
