Yes, but political theory should be taught in schools so that people understand what they are voting for

 @9LJN4YRanswered…8mos8MO

No, but civic education of the political system should be increased to ensure people of voting age understand politics

 @89KMD5Wanswered…4yrs4Y

Voting carries less of a responsibility than marriage and sexual consent, both legal at the age of 16. Why should the right to vote not be the same?

 @8TMYVZKanswered…3yrs3Y

No, its should be raised to 25 only being allowed for men and eventually abolish voting altogether

 @9PHL6N7answered…6mos6MO

Yes, and political education should be required to complete a course separate to school demonstrating their understanding of politics

 @9TDVHZWanswered…3mos3MO

No, parties should focus on persuading the existing electorate, not on adding new voters that they hope will favour them

 @9MX5JLCanswered…7mos7MO

Yes, this should be lowered to 16 and younger citizens should be educated in schools from an unbiased perspective about the parties so they are not voting blindly. Eliminating part of the younger generations favours certain parties.
