Detailed explanation-1: -In 60 BC, Caesar sought election as consul for 59 BC, along with two other candidates. The election was sordid-even Cato, with his reputation for incorruptibility, is said to have resorted to bribery in favour of one of Caesar’s opponents. Caesar won, along with conservative Marcus Bibulus.
Detailed explanation-2: -Caesar made the political prime time at around age 40 by forging the First Triumvirate with Pompey the Great, noted general and statesman, and Marcus Licinius Crassus, one of Rome’s richest men. In 59 B.C., Caesar was elected consul.
