Should the legal voting age be changed to16?
Firstly i do not think that the legal voting age should be changed. I believe that the age of 18 is still a young age to voteand most people in that age group barley participate. Most 18yr olds are barley getting out of high school at this time in there life. They have barley learned the basics of politics in school. Voting for a president ,mayor,school board, those are very big impacts in the world to let young people vote on when they only know the basics. Secondly i believe if they lowered the voting ages to 16 that it would deffinetly lower the participation percentage.The avarage person that are eligible to vote now dont even go and vote.Yes if they lowered the age to 16 more people
