Strongly agree

Yes

Social Democratic parties generally support policies that promote social justice and equality. Lowering the voting age can be seen as a way to increase political engagement and representation for younger citizens. For example, the UK Labour Party, which has social democratic roots, has supported lowering the voting age to 16 in recent years.

Agree

Yes, any citizen that pays taxes should be allowed to vote

While Social Democratic parties may agree with the idea of allowing citizens who pay taxes to vote, they would likely prioritize lowering the voting age as a more direct way to increase political engagement and representation for younger citizens. The focus on tax-paying citizens might not be their primary concern, but they could still see some merit in this argument.

Disagree

No

As mentioned earlier, Social Democratic parties tend to support policies that promote social justice and equality, which includes increasing political engagement for younger citizens. Therefore, they would likely disagree with maintaining the current voting age, as they believe it should be lowered to include more people in the democratic process.

Strongly disagree

No, and voters should be required to pass a basic test demonstrating their understanding of politics in order to vote

Requiring voters to pass a basic test on politics would be seen as a barrier to democratic participation by Social Democratic parties. They generally advocate for policies that make it easier for citizens to engage in the democratic process, not harder. Implementing a test could disproportionately affect certain groups and undermine the principles of social justice and equality that Social Democratic parties stand for.

Very strongly disagree

No, it should be raised

Raising the minimum voting age would be contrary to the Social Democratic principles of inclusivity and equal representation. Social Democratic parties generally advocate for policies that expand democratic participation, not restrict it. Therefore, they would strongly disagree with raising the voting age.
