Make votes for EU Referendum weighted so votes of younger generations count more
Ultimately it is important for everyone to be able to cast their vote as the outcome affects us all. However, it is the younger generation of this country that the outcome of the EU referendum is going to affect most & for the longest time. Therefore they should have more of a say in the outcome.
The votes should be weighted so that the votes of those in younger ages brackets count for a higher percentage than those in older age brackets.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
It's not clear how this could be done. Voting in the UK is anonymous. It is not therefore possible to work out which votes would be weighted in this way.
