Change the voting age to 16
Change the voting age to 16 years old for all Referendums and General Elections.
Changing the voting age to 16 would have many benefits such as: It would allow 16 year olds to feel more involved meaning they would more likely become interested in politics, this would improve voter turnout. It would allow them to make decisions which would affect them for many years.
