Petition Action

Reconsider the Minimum Age to particpate in Local, National and European Voting.

Petition Details

Lots of people think that Minors should have the opportunity to vote.
A lot of minors are mature enough to vote. They think seriously about the pros and cons about who to vote for and sometimes help their elders with their votes.

Additional Information

If you search up online you will find a strong majority of people saying that minors should have the rights to vote. Some even say that people as young as ten should be able to vote! Personally that is too young but 13-16 as a new minimum age is what most people find okay with.
