I'm all for some kind of IQ test but in that case we can dispense with the age requirement entirely.

not happening. adults who feel disenfranchised are a prime cause of shootings

Why not get rid of voting and let a magic 8 ball rule

Does that mean people won't have to pay taxes until they are 35? Taxation without representation, one thing the revolutionary war was fought over.

The voting age was lowered to 18 during the Vietnam era. Americans saw the immorality of sending young men to their death when they had no say in the political decisions that sent them there in the first place.

You will never be able to take away an American's right that they already have. Guns will never be confiscated, abortion will never be illegal, and the voting age will never be raised.

These are the political realities that most right wing politicians will never admit to because the fear of those things happening generates a lot of money and a lot of votes.

You would disenfranchise those with the most to gain - or lose - from policies that affect their future.

I remember the 1960s, and 1970s, before the 26th Amendment.

A riot is how the disenfranchised cast their ballot.

To be fair , 27 at very least .

Well Democrats would never win another election thank god
