Petition Action

Reduce the voting age to 16 year old.

Additional Information

We would like the government to reduce the voting age for all elections and referendums from 18 year old to 16 year old. We believe that if 16 and 17 year olds can pay taxes in this country then they should be able to vote in this country.
