Cirka år 1200 förvärvade sju <a href="/wiki/Riksfurste" class="mw-redirect" title="Riksfurste">riksfurstar</a> (det vill säga <a href="/wiki/Vasall" title="Vasall">vasaller</a> som fått sina län direkt av kejsaren) rätten att vid val av romersk kung avge de första rösterna. Under 1200-talet utvecklades denna rätt till en exklusiv rätt att företa kungaval, en rätt som tycks ha varit fullt genomförd vid valet av <a href="/wiki/Rudolf_I" title="Rudolf I">Rudolf av Habsburg</a> år <a href="/wiki/1273" title="1273">1273</a>. För att få bestiga tronen som fullvärdig kejsare krävdes dock att den valda romerska kungen kröntes av <a href="/wiki/P%C3%A5ve" title="Påve">påven</a>. <a href="/wiki/Karl_V_(tysk-romersk_kejsare)" title="Karl V (tysk-romersk kejsare)">Karl I av Spanien</a> var den sista att låta sig krönas 1530, hans efterträdare antog titeln kejsare direkt efter att ha valts. </p><p>Kurfurstarnas inflytande på riksangelägenheterna upphörde inte med kungavalet. De fick dessutom privilegiet att göra härskarens viktigare regeringshandlingar beroende av sitt samtycke. Genom egna bifallsurkunder, så kallade <i>Willebriefe</i>, hade kurfurstarna rätt att sanktionera sådana regeringshandlingar, framför allt dem som rörde föryttrandet av rättigheter och riksdomäner. Denna rättighet stadfästes även uttryckligen år 1281 av kung Rudolf.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-reference-link-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-reference-link-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Kurfurstetiteln var den mest prestigefyllda titel som kunde ges en vasall i tysk-romerska riket och den medförde särskilda privilegier förutom rösträtten (bland annat utgjorde kurfurstarna ett eget <a href="/wiki/Riksst%C3%A5nd" title="Riksstånd">riksstånd</a>) och hölls vid sidan av kurfurstarnas feodala härskartitlar.
